We'll be keeping you as up-to-date as possible on the latest transfer talk in On The Move. You can catch the morning newspaper gossip in Paper Round, read up on all the Latest Transfers and then follow the developing stories in our constantly updated transfer blog here:
11.59pm: Last one for the night. John Terry is set to be offered £1m a month by Man City as they launch a last bid for the Chelsea skipper. Will he go for the money? More on this tomorrow no doubt...

8.44pm: Eredivisie champions AZ have completed the transfer of Morten Nielsen from Chelsea on a free transfer.

7.03pm: Trezuguet update. AC Milan are considering an audacious bid for the Juventus forward to ease their striker shortage, coach Leonardo has said.
6.32pm: Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher is hoping for a swift resolution to the Xabi Alonso transfer saga, but is keen for the midfielder remain at the club.

8.17am: Didier Drogba has declared captain John Terry is set to turn down Manchester City and stay with Chelsea.
8am: Welcome to today's transfer talk. What excitement lies in wait?
Who is buying Robben, Huntelaar and Snejder from RM? Interesting names but not much gossip around them..
How can Chamakh even contemplate a move to Sunderland with Arsenal sniffing about??
good evening
pls i just want tell you guys that you are doing a job and i would appreciate if you guys keep doing that. And secondly am great fan of the CHAMPIONS OF ENGLAND, Am talking about the Great Manchester United, i want to ask a question about the french frank ribery, is he really interested in moving down to oldtradfod
First things first - the FORMER Deportivo Cali striker, Fredy Montero, might get a move to the Premier League if he keeps playing well for his current club, Seattle Sounders FC.
Next - WHY WHY WHY did we have to buy the two Kyles from Sheff U?
Naughton is a right-back - Gunter is a right back; they're both young and have potential; we just sold one and bought a more expensive one; RIDICULOUS.
Walker is apparently a centre-back; we need a young one of those why? If anything, we need experienced back-upn there...though it's way, way down on the priorities list with Dawson and Corluka at the club (both of whom should stay, by the way).
i heard that arsenal are in talks with Huntelaar
i hope bendtner leaves arsenal, because as a arsenal fan i would love 2 c him leave as i think he is a tall problem that arsenal don't need.

I am asked occasionally to talk about where I work, to offer insight into the institution known as the Amarillo Globe-News.
So, that is what I'll do today, as we all enter the Year of the Election and as the newspaper's Editorial Board (see facing page) embarks on the task of interviewing candidates for public office.
Let's deal with some common questions about the newspaper's Opinion pages.
Why don't you sign your editorials? The editorials are signed - in a way. The names of the publisher and the editorial page editor appear in the upper-left corner of this page. The publisher, as the paper's chief executive officer, ultimately is responsible for the editorials that appear under the masthead of the page. The editorials, which may be written by any one of three people - myself, or editorial writers David Henry and Jeff Farris - speak for the paper and are the paper's "institutional voice."
Some editors require the writers to sign editorials. Most do not.
We believe it is better for someone to challenge the paper's voice than to single out an individual writer.
How do you select your columns? We strive for ideological diversity on the pages of all our papers, the morning Daily News, the evening Globe-Times and the Sunday News-Globe. We carry a wide range of thought, from the far left (Molly Ivins and Donald Kaul) to the far right (Cal Thomas and Walter Williams). Several of our columnists fit somewhere in the middle, some tilting to the left, others to the right.
We look for columnists who are provocative writers and clear thinkers. We don't look for columnists who necessarily please everyone, or those who necessarily anger everyone. We seek to offer a smorgasbord of ideas.
How do I get a letter to the editor published? Just submit it, and we'll consider it. We strive to publish as many as space will allow. Our letters policy is generous: We edit them for length (300 words), taste, libel, relevance and clarity. We make one demand: They must come with a name, as well as an address and daytime phone number, which we need for verification purposes.
And we do not discard letters because they disagree with the paper's editorial policy. Indeed, we welcome those who wish to challenge us. We have heard from many critics over the years on a number of topics about which we've editorialized.
One more point about letters is that we recently instituted a one-letter-per-month rule for letter writers. We limit writers to one published letter per calendar month in the morning and evening paper. We instituted that policy to draw more people onto the page and to attract a broader diversity of opinions. So far the policy has worked well.
As for guest columns, we consider those individually, too. We like them to be around 750 words, and we subject them to the same editing standards we apply to letters.
How do you decide whom to endorse for public office? We invite them in, talk to them, glean from them their views on why they are the most qualified people for the position they seek. We set up a basic framework of questions in advance, and we ask all the candidates for the same office basically the same questions. There might be a unique question, or set of questions, we'll ask a candidate, depending on that candidate's history or whether the candidate has made news in some other context.
After the interviews, we discuss the merits of the candidates among ourselves and strive for a consensus on whom to recommend to voters. Occasionally, we call outside sources to give us additional perspective. This is helpful in deciding whom to recommend in a race with two or more highly qualified candidates.
We do not consider ours to be the final word on these races. We don't offer them with the intention of dictating how our readers should vote.
Candidates tell us our endorsement is "critical" to their effort, but we try not to take ourselves too seriously.
Still, we always seek to follow the wisdom of the late Gene Howe, founder of the Globe-Times, whose words are inscribed in the wall facing South Harrison Street: A newspaper may be forgiven for lack of wisdom, but never for lack of courage.
John Kanelis is editorial page editor for the Amarillo Globe-News. He can be contacted at the Globe-News, P.O. Box 2091, Amarillo, Texas 79166, or via e-mail at email@example.com.

Re: Chamber of Commerce insert in today's Bellingham HeraldPermalink +
Mon, May 24, 2004, 7:22 pm // John ServaisThe initiative is 'remove motor boats', not 'remove boats' from Lake Whatcom. Our Chamber of Commerce just lies in print to achieve their goal of defeating the initiative. Then the illustration shows a canoe - hello? No one is trying to remove canoes from the lake. The initiative is aimed at removing very polluting outboard motors from Lake Whatcom. Indeed, this would make the lake more attractive to canoeing. Have you ever been in a canoe when a speed boat roars by and gives you their wake?
For the record, the initiative seeks to give the voters a choice of whether to ban polluting motor boats from the lake which is also our drinking water source.
This false headline puts the rest of the article in disrepute - why believe anything else? And for that matter, the whole 12 pages of Vol. 1, #1 is a joke. The Bellingham Herald and the Chamber are teaming up to try and compete with the Bellingham Business Journal. In my opinion, the Journal is the most outstanding publication in Whatcom County. John Thompson and his staff do a better job on their mission than any other publication. Each month when the Journal comes out, the Herald manages to get an early issue and then quickly prints articles on topics in the Journal.
Ken Oplinger, Chamber president, wrote the article - although he did not have the decency to put his name to it. Ken is new to our area. The Herald sold the ads - and they can hide behind the Chamber and claim they did not write the lies. Did the Herald print the insert? Did Herald staff lay out the tabloid? And is the Herald ducking any responsibility for the contents?
I have not signed nor endorsed the Motor Boats Off initiative. Benzene is about #10 on the list of problems in the lake and clean motors should be allowed. But the initiative is a poke with a sharp stick to our power elite who have refused for years to do anything to clean up Lake Whatcom. Suddenly they are for reasonable measures. Take the initiative away and they will immediately go back to their reactionary stance of nothing is wrong.
Meanwhile, truth takes a back seat. And our best-educated and wealthiest community members push blatant lies at the voters. Shame on them.

TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the New York state urban development
corporation act, in relation to consultation with affected parties on
certain projects
To ensure that the Urban Development Corporation (UDC)-in the course of
proposing, planning, designing and executing projects-works directly
with the affected community and specifically affected parties that have
a substantive, pertinent and vested interest in the project and how it
will affect the community.
The following changes to Section 16 of the UDC Act are proposed:
UDC is required to directly and proactively consult with "Specifically
Affected Parties," at all stages of a proposed project, including the
development, planning and proposal stages of such projects.
"Specifically Affected Parties" are defined as: (1) Current tenants or
occupants of the proposed project site, (2) All elected officials that
geographically represent the proposed project site, (3) All local
government subsidiaries charged with land use/zoning review duties with-
in the proposed project site, (4) The community, minimally operational-
ized as residents who live within a five mile radius of the proposed
project site and (5) Community based organizations who are principally
based in the catchment area that is concurrent with the proposed project
Consultation with the aforementioned parties is mandated at all stages
of contemplated projects and must include: reaching out to all "Specif-
ically Affected Parties" by first class mail, e-mail and phone; holding
community planning meetings, where affected parties can engage in true
collaboration and community planning, including the opportunity to
propose affirmative, modified or alternative plans. Enhanced UDC
outreach provisions with respect to the general public are mandated,
which include: distributing flyers concerning the proposed project,
erecting signage at the proposed project site, attending and speaking at
community meetings and taking out full page advertisements in two papers
of specific circulation to the community affected by the project.
Provides for a sixty day timeframe between General Project Plan (GPP)
approval by the UDC Board of Directors and communication of same to the
"Specifically Affected Parties," including the relevant Community
Board(s) where the project is located-before a public hearing is held
thereon. Also specifies that the sixty day timeframe commences when the
"Specifically Affected Parties," including the Community Board receives
notification and confirms such with UDC, not when it is originally
mailed. Direct and proactive consultation with "Specifically Affected
Parties" shall occur during this sixty day time period.
Provides that UDC must act on all testimony received at public hearings.
Specifically, they must respond to each substantive comment in writing,
including "substantive negative comments" and share these responses with
"Specifically Affected Parties." If UDC decides to affirm the proposed
plan without incorporating changes, they must hold a public meeting with
the "Specifically Affected Parties" and explain why they have not modi-
fied or withdrawn the plan in response to substantive negative comments.
Section 16 of the UDC Act of 1968 and amendments thereto spell out a
exceptionally limited, narrowly defined and mechanically executed public
consultation process that acts, in practice, as mere ornamentation for
speedy approval of projects, the details of which are decided in advance
and fast-tracked without substantively engaging the affected community.
The public consultation provisions of the UDC Act are dated in time and
simply do not work in a way that empowers and taps into the knowledge
and passion of communities that are affected by massive redevelopment
projects. The law itself, while spelling out some minor procedural due
process guarantees, functions as an absolute rubber stamp in practice.
Some examples of the current failings, with respect to the City of New
York include: the fact that the projects are developed in secret and not
as part of a community planning process; the fact that the Mayor and the
City Clerk are notified about the project but current residents and
tenants who live at work at the project site are not; while Community
Boards are supposed to be notified about the project before a public
hearing occurs thereon, many receive notice after the fact that the
hearing has actually occurred; because of the fact that a hearing must
occur within ten days of Community Board "notification" most in the
community never hear about the project or have the opportunity to be
heard thereon and thus the public hearings are held in silent halls with
no attendance whatsoever-In fact, the current Chief of Staff for UDC
recently stated that it is not uncommon for no one to show up to UDC
hearings. In the rare times that people do show up to testify, the
comments are simply noted and transcribed; they are never acted upon and
the projects are never amended to reflect them.
In short, the current public consultation provisions of the UDC Act are
entirely inadequate to the statutorily mandated task of actually
consulting with affected parties at the "earliest practicable time" and
giving "primary consideration to local needs and desires" while foster-
ing "local initiative and participation in connection with the planning
and development of its projects." The time is right to give this statu-
tory dicta meaning in the real word application of projects that have
generational consequences in our communities.
New bill
Minor, if any at all.
None noted.

Culture Shock
By Patricia Sauthoff
F'Yeah Fractals
For the mathematically uninclined, calculus looks less like math and more like an indecipherable secret language. Instead of explaining anything, it simply adds more mystery and, often, a little bit of fear. Fortunately, math fans and foes can get together under the domed ceiling of the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science (1801 Mountain NW) to see math in action in a much more meaningful manner. "First Friday Fractals" takes mathematically complex geometric shapes, projects them, zooms in close to show their detail and complexity, and makes math beautiful. Shows are Friday, July 2, at 6, 7 and 8 p.m. The cost is $5 for kids 3 to 12, $7 for seniors and $10 for everybody else. Get tickets at nmnaturalhistory.org or at the museum.

History Lessons
The forgotten past is almost always the most interesting
By Patricia Sauthoff
As a history nerd, I've often wondered what exactly it is that draws me to certain people or times. For example, I love me some medieval India, especially the Mughal Empire. Maybe it's some past life thing, who knows? But it came up again for me while wandering around the National Hispanic Cultural Center exhibition New Mexico's African American Legacy: Visible, Vital, Valuable. I was reminded of this freelance job I had a few years ago in which I wrote short biographies of notable African-Americans, anyone from John James Audubon to Charity Adams Earley, people about whom I knew nearly nothing when I started but who inspired me through their courageous actions.

Joe Flacco Wants To Beat New Engalnd Badly
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco spoke with the media on Wednesday about beating the New England Patriots, Ray Lewis and the journey to the Super Bowl.
On the good numbers he has had and the impact the offensive line has on them:
?The O-line, I think that?s where it starts all the time. If those guys are playing well, I think we play well as an offense, and I think that goes the same across the league. And, these guys have really stepped up and are starting to play really well.?
On his thoughts after LB Ray Lewis designated him ?The General? after last week?s game:
?(laughing) I was getting beat up in the tunnel before the game by him, just taking a bunch of hits, and he was talking to me. It was pretty cool. Anytime somebody like that comes up to you ? a leader like that ? a guy that?s had so much success in this league and is so loved by so many people, it?s obviously pretty cool.?
On how he uses LB Ray Lewis? ?last ride? as a motivation to continue on:
?You guys ask so many questions about it, and you make a big deal about it, but when we?re out there, I think he?s giving us the same emotional high that he always gives us. He always tries to jolt us forward a little bit on gameday and get everybody going in his own little way. When we?re out there playing on Sunday, that?s the last thing we?re really thinking about. We?re thinking about what we have to do to win this football game and get the ball in the end zone, and for them, stop the other offense. So, maybe it?s working more than I would like to admit, but I think that?s something that you kind of sit back and can enjoy after you?ve gotten the win and say, ?Man, it?s pretty cool that we were able to do that and get another step further and closer to where we want to be for that guy.??
On if he agrees that nothing else matters besides beating New England: ?Yes.?
On what changes he has seen in the Patriots? secondary:
?They?re a good football team, and they?re still going to attack us in what they feel like is going to put pressure on us. I think they?re going to probably come up and put pressure on our receivers. They always ? throughout the years ? like to get up and not allow our tight ends and our inside guys to get off the ball very well and play over the top of the outside guys. We?ll see. We?ll see if they match them on Torrey [Smith] or Anquan [Boldin] or anything like that. I think they?ve let up some yards in that area, but at the same time, they do a good job of playing very well and playing some man [coverage] underneath, and like I said, getting pressure, getting their hands on those guys to kind of re-route them a little bit. So, we?ll have to be very good this week at combating that a little bit and running crisp routes and making sure that we don?t allow them to hold us up.?
On the differences in this year?s Ravens team from last year?s:
?Everybody is a year more experienced. We were a pretty young football team last year, and I think guys like Torrey [Smith] and our tight ends and Tandon Doss and Ray [Rice] now have a little bit of a spell with Bernard [Pierce], and our offensive line is playing very well. I don?t know what the difference is [from] last year. I felt we were a really good team last year, and we had a really good shot. Like I said, I think we?re a little more experienced at this point, and we?re playing very confidently right now.?
On if he elevates his play in big games:
?No, I don?t really think so. You go out there and you play to win the football game and some of the things that have been required to win these football games have maybe been a little bit over the top and a little abnormal, but no. I would like to think that I go out there and play consistently and approach everything the same way. I think that?s been proved out. We win a lot of football games around here, and this is actually the third time I?m standing up here getting ready to play in an AFC Championship game. It?s pretty crazy when you think about it. Who knows what it?s going to take to win on Sunday, but our mindset is it?s going to take our best, and we?re ready to go give it.?
On if the game speeds up during the playoffs and how a team might slow down the pace:
?No, I don?t find that. I think that?d be putting every NFL player ? I think that?d be a criticism to every NFL player out there. The fact that you?re playing one way in the regular season and a completely different way in the playoffs, I think that?s a bunch of crap. I think we go out there and lay it on the line every week, and like I said, I?d be doing myself a disservice and everybody else in the league a disservice if I were to say I thought the playoffs were different. I really don?t. There?s obviously a little bit more on the line, because if you don?t win, you go home. But you?ve put yourself into that position and every one of those games was just as important as the others, so I don?t really buy into that.?
On if he has time to reflect on the game-tying touchdown during the Denver Broncos game:
?Yes, a couple of hours after the game when we were still on that emotional high. After that, you have to put it behind you and take it for what it was and move on. It was obviously a pretty special moment, and we were pretty excited about it. It won?t mean anything come this week.?
On if throwing his last interception against Denver in Week 15 has affected him at all:
?No. It affected me right there. I was pretty unhappy about it, and rather than possibly making the game 10-7, it was 17-0. I think I do a pretty good job of taking care of the ball on a consistent basis. Things like that happen, and you have to be willing to deal with it and come out and continue to play the way that you think you can. I think that?s all that has been happening.?
On his thoughts on making the cover of Sports Illustrated:
?I don?t know. I think I?ve seen it on an Instagram picture, but I haven?t really seen it.?
On if there is a curse to being on the cover of Sports Illustrated:
?Sure hope not. It just depends on how we go play on Sunday. We?ll see.?

It may also charge a fee for receiving money, proportional to the amount received. The fees depend on the currency used, the payment option used, the country of the sender, the country of the recipient, the amount sent and the recipient's account type.[4] In addition, eBay purchases made by credit card through PayPal may incur extra fees if the buyer and seller use different currencies. On October 3, 2002, PayPal became a wholly owned subsidiary of eBay.[5] Its corporate headquarters are in San Jose, California,[2] United States at eBay's North First Street satellite office campus. The company also has significant operations in Omaha, Nebraska, Scottsdale, Arizona, Charlotte, North Carolina and Austin, Texas in the United States; Chennai in India; Dublin in Ireland; Kleinmachnow in Germany; and Tel Aviv in Israel.

My username is goddessofwhimsy on Raverly and my website is ramblingdesign.wordpress.com
I am a freelance designer for many years now. I have designed for Plymouth yarns, Koigu, The Alpaca yarn company, Darn Good Yarn and many more. My designs have been published in Vogue knitting.
At the moment I am looking for a company to take me on as their in house designer. I would love to be part of a team. I still do freelance designing and even custom knitting through my newly established designing firm Slipknot designs.
I no longer sell the rights to any of my designs.
I have been taught to knit when I was 5 or six, by my Grandmother in Bavaria, where I was born and raised. I have knitted and crochet on and off throughout the years.
At 24 I came to the States, met the most wonderful of all husbands and needed something to do when the kids would take naps and my husband was at work. I also lived right across the street from a shop that sold yarn and needles and other crafty things. One afternoon I went and got myself some cotton and a crochet hook and the rest is history!
I want to give a thanks to my husband at this point, who has put up with my antics over the years and has been encouraging me and believing in me always! Thank you baby! I love you!
And to my children: I think you are the most amazing little monkeys around and I would not want to be without any of you ever again!
3/4 sleeves and ani-cord looking front seam make this shrug different and fun to knit.
Great for over tank tops in summer, or even to make your long sleeve shirts in winter look different and more fun.
The coastal colours Yarn I used for this shrug has 437 yards per skein, but there was a bit left over.
it's definitely worth checking out the yarn! Rhonda is a wizard with the dye pot!
Gauge is 10 stitches x 10 rows = 1.5 x 1.5 inches

It's a good day for catcher Yadier Molina, who accepted a 5-year deal with the St. Louis Cardinals for $75 million. The deal keeps him on the team through 2017, and he has a chance to get even more out of it with a mutual, $15 million option for 2018. This is also good news for the Cardinals, who recently lost Albert Pujols to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

- 'The Man' may be a term that most alpha males find endearing, but not for professional baseball player Albert Pujols. An Angels marketing campaign has sprouted 20 billboard advertisements across Southern California, including one of Pujols with the words "El Hombre" ("The Man") written across the board. The slugger disapproves of the campaign out of respect for St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Famer Stan Musial, who earned the original nickname.

Arnott with that report. It's almost seven years since Federation Square was opened in Melbourne. During the building process, there was intense public debate about the architecture. People either loved it or hated it. Tomorrow an exhibition will open at the Ian Potter Gallery to show the detailed designs that led to Federation Square which Melburnians have now come to embrace as a focal point for major events in the city. I spoke to the two architects behind the project. Almost seven years on since Federation Square was opened, is it delivering what you hoped? It is doing that and more. As architects you test and think about the possibilities that could happen in the space, but I would honestly say it has exceeded what we imagined could happen. That is a fantastic thing as an architect to see something being used in ways you didn't imagine. I think the original dancing in the square was a wonderful event and also even sorry day, they were incredibly moving. Do you share that feeling? Yeah. In a way it's like a laboratory for us as well. We can now see what is taking place compared to what we imagined and learn from the experience of that and see the way that people have just colonised it and sit on the stone and watch the films or productions or speeches or whatever may take place. Has it been used in that sense more than you might have imagined when you designed it? Yes, something about these cobble stones, we wanted cobble stones for texture and surface, but the colours and everything, people treat this as a front room and sit down. This is not any cleaner than the sidewalks in Melbourne, but it is where people go. There was a lot of controversy, public controversy surrounding Federation Square as it was going up. Do you think that has all settled down now? We do recall there was controversy, but from the day it opened it disappeared. For us, the public reception and engagement of the project changed on that day. For us that was an enormous relief. People could see it. They were no longer outside of it. They could stand inside it and experience it. That's what made the difference. It is in your face, definitely. I think you either love it or hate it. It's not my cup of tea. It looks different. It has a certain atmosphere about it. Quit a pleasant place to be. I think back to my days of working in the city here and this used to be rail yards. I said to my friend how lovely in Melbourne it is with the skyline and you feel like the umbrellas are out and you are in the centre of a great city. Do you think it was a difficult construction? It was something total ly new wasn't? I it was the first so we will measure everything against it. We thought after Federation Square anything would worked in China and the Middle East. They have their own challenges and rapid time frames. If you could build projects here in the same speed as you could build them in China there, would no problems with politicians. You could build in three years easily. Exhibition of your work will be held here in the gallery that you designed. How does that feel? It's special. I think we're quite lucky to have it, but it is also part of the relationship that we have with the NGB, working with them and now being part of the exhibition cycle. For us it has been a challenge. We were involved in the original first hang and exhibition design of the gallery. So we've had to go back and look and engaged with things we designed seven years ago and making something else of them so it's not just drawings on the wall, but a whole experience for the public to enjoy. Are you happy with the way the gallery is working? We're thrilled. I mean from the moment Federation Square opened, it was a whole other story. That's pleased us enormously and to see the way the gallery has evolved and the exhibitions that have been here. It's been a real privilege to see that first-hand. I gather this is one of your favourite areas of the gallery? I think it is one of the spaces, not the galleries themselves, but the space in between the galleries. It has quite a strong spacial quality of being very vertical space and tonality of the space. It is a quiet spot. A little bit hidden but a point of discovery. Are there any things you would have done differently? There are many things we would have done differently and things we've learned about the every day experience of the project that would have ultimately improved the way it could have been used. Do you think this exhibition is going to show things in your plans about what might have been, the original plans were different to what went up? Well, it will show the way the project evolved over time. That it is never exactly the way you start. It is a much more dynamic process. That is part of the interesting part of architecture itself. Are you looking forward to the exhibition? Looking forward to it greatly to reflect upon the Federation Square and that design, but also to look at the work we've been working on around the world over the last seven years. Well, gentlemen, good luck with it and thank you for your time today. Thank you. Thank you.

Joining the Dream Project Team
By Jessica Hunnicut, Dream Project Assistant Director of Program Operations.
As a person with no prior involvement in Dream Project, on-boarding involved learning about an entirely new and unfamiliar organizational culture. Dream Project is a unique program unlike any other that I have seen during my college and professional career. It took a couple of weeks of attending meetings and class, going on visits, going to break-out sessions, and meeting with students and staff to really feel that I had gained an understanding of the program, and how it works.
Prior to receiving the position of Assistant Director of Program Operations for DP, I worked at the UW Ethnic Cultural Center for four years as Student Advisor and Coordinator for Leadership Programs. Before that, I worked at WSU in the Office of Student Conduct as well as in Student Support Services. So while I've had lots of experience working in Higher Education and supporting students, I have never seen a program that operates in the way that Dream Project does, the main difference being that this organization is actually student-run.
Though many campus organizations involve students in decision-making in some limited capacity, few actually have students driving and steering the boat. I think it is common for undergraduates to be treated as kids at institutions of higher education (though most are legally adults). In fact, in many conversations in the university setting (behind closed doors), undergraduate students are actually referred to as kids. I believe the Dream Project provides a great model for other campus programs, and demonstrates that undergrads are quite capable and competent, and when given the opportunity and support, can make enormous contributions to the university setting and larger community. DP student leaders are tasked with maintaining, sustaining, improving and innovating the organization much in the same way that professional staffs are, elsewhere in the university.
I believe that the best way to supplement the learning that takes place in the classroom is to give students the opportunity to go out into the world and apply what they are learning, and to have the confidence in them to do so. The Dream Project operates on this model very effectively. Students enroll in a class where they learn about and discuss issues of social inequality and access to higher education. Then they go out into high schools that serve predominantly low income and first generation students to work directly with those students, assisting with the college preparation and application processes. Once DP students have become familiar with the program, they are encouraged to get involved in leadership and "steer" the organizational boat through a number of different roles. I am excited that in my new role with the Dream Project, I can continue to support students, but now in a new and more empowering way than I have been able to do before. I'm also excited that I will continue to learn and grow with the organization in the years to come.

We received a jar of Baconnaise from my SO's brother... I'm afraid to touch it...
Seems other people have the same abiding love of bacon as I do!
Just ran across this from a news site..... Oh yeah !
I draw the line at a bacon coffin! But what a hoot!
We received a jar of Baconnaise from my SO's brother... I'm afraid to touch it...
what type of bacon is good bacon? sorry, I am a newbie
That baconnaise is not food. Second ingredient is soybean oil! Gross.
And no, you should not eat massive quantities of bacon; it is not "health food", it's meat candy.
Today I will: Eat food, not poison. Plan for success, not settle for failure. Live my real life, not a virtual one. Move and grow, not sit and die.
My Primal Journal
RE: the Baconnaise
A. Make yourself some REAL bacon
B. Save the grease
C. Use that bacon grease to make yourself some genuine BACON mayonaise. NOM!
You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.
~Friedrich Nietzsche
And that's why I'm here eating HFLC Primal/Paleo.
True, on both accounts. But I thought it was funny!.... A bacon coffin...wtf?
Moderation is almost ALWAYS a good thing.

The Selected Poetry of Edna St. Vincent Millay (Modern Library Classics)
by Edna St. Vincent Millay
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Her poetry is so true and sounds so unaffected..."After all's said and done, the things that are / Of moment. / Few indeed! When I can make / Of ten small words a rope to hang the world! / 'I had you and I have you now no more.'" and "Time does not bring relief; you all lied..." She is still transcendentally pithy.
This slender volume is perfect for those unfamiliar with Millay -- it contains her most well-known pieces -- as well as those who are devoted fans -- it's the perfect size for carrying around and dipping into as needed!
First Fig
I read a lot of Millay's poems in high school and hated them. 5 years later, with a little life experience under my belt and a few nasty break-ups, she's become my favorite author.
Her style is flawless. My favorite is "If I should learn..."

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0375761233, Paperback)One of America's most celebrated poets—and winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1923—Edna St. Vincent Millay defined a generation with her passionate lyrics and intoxicating voice of liberation. Edited by Millay biographer Nancy Milford, this Modern Library Paperback Classics collection captures the poet's unique spirit in works like Renascence and Other Poems, A Few Figs from This-tles, and Second April, as well as in "The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver" and eight sonnets from the early twenties. As Milford writes in her Introduction, "These are the poems that made Edna St. Vincent Millay's reputation when she was young. Saucy, insolent, flip, and defiant, her little verses sting the page."

Revel in the candid verse of Edna St. Vincent Millay, including such favorites as "The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver" and "Renascence." This lively selection casts Millay's career in a new light.

text: 000 FXUS65 KPUB 260534 AFDPUB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Pueblo CO 1134 PM MDT SUN SEP 25 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday) Issued at 205 PM MDT Sun Sep 25 2016 ...Warm and Dry Monday... Quiet weekend wx will continue through Monday as high pressure builds over our area from the west. Subsidence aloft continues to keep clouds at bay over most of CO today, and this will continue through most of Monday. Will start to see some high clouds move in from the south late on Monday as the upper low to our south slowly shifts northward. Should be on the chilly side tonight despite rising heights, due to low humidity, no clouds, and light winds. Pretty much perfect conditions for radiational cooling. Would not be surprised to see some 30s over the low spots in the Plains. Some patchy frost not out of the question, particularly for the low-lying spots. Tomorrow, H7 temps will be about 4-5 degrees higher than they were today, and with plenty of sun should see high temps rise well into the 70s over the Plains and 60s high valleys once morning inversions have mixed out. Winds will continue to be light. Rose .LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday) Issued at 205 PM MDT Sun Sep 25 2016 An upper level ridge over the area will keep the wx dry thru Wed morning. In the meantime, an upper low will be moving northward from central Baja CA into southern NV. With this upper low moving closer to CO on Wed, it is expected to bring an increase in moisture to western CO late in the day. As a result, there wl be the possibility of isold to sct pcpn along the Continental Divide Wed afternoon and evening, while the rest of the area should remain dry. The upr low wl weaken late on Wed and become an open wave which is expected to move northeastward thru UT and wrn CO, and then into WY through Thu. On Thu, chances for pcpn wl mainly be west of the I-25 corridor. On Fri an upper level ridge is forecast to be ovr nrn Mexico and southwest TX, while an upr trof moves into the Pacific NW. A weak upper level disturbance is forecast to move over CO from the southwest, bringing chances for pcpn to the mountains and nearby lower elevations. Some isold showers/tstms may move out acrs the southeast plains Fri night and into Sat morning depending on the speed of the disturbance. A southerly moisture tap into the forecast area, along with low level upslope over eastern areas will likely lead to the potential for showers/tstm for much of the area, although coverage should be isold. On Sun the upper trof moves into the Great Basin which wl bring stronger south to southwest winds to the forecast area. There wl also be the potential for some isolated pcpn over the mtns and high valleys. High temps each day in the extended period are expected to be a little above average. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday night) Issued at 1122 PM MDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Upper ridging building into the western United States will allow VFR conditions to continue over the KALS...KCOS and KPUB TAF sites into Monday night. && .PUB Watches/Warnings/Advisories...
