Support World CouncilWith Amazon Smiles!
World Council currently facilitates 16 international credit union partnerships.
World Council's International Partnerships Program unites credit union movements from around the world to exchange ideas, best practices and technical expertise. The International Partnerships Program builds stronger institutional capacity that ultimately benefits credit union members while demonstrating the cooperative ideals that characterize credit unions and distinguish them as financial institutions.
Partners have engaged in many activities overseas by providing guidance and expertise to their international partners. Here are a few examples:
World Council seeks to match its members and supporters, both in emerging and developed countries. The partnership is established when each organization, accompanied by World Council, visits its potential partner to observe operations and determine common areas for work.
Agree to conduct two-to-four joint activities in a year. All partnership activities are implemented in a non-intrusive manner to respect each credit union's internal operations. Partnering countries agree upon partnership activities in semiannual planning sessions. A partnership activity could take many forms, including:
Willingness to become a World Council Supporter. When your annual commitment is designated to your partnership activities, World Council would apply it to supporting the partnership activities with your partner country. World Council suggests a silver (US$5,000–$9,999) or gold (US$10,000–$24,999) annual contribution. All World Council Supporters will be listed by recognition level in World Council publications, our website and at our conferences. World Council Supporters are also invited to two annual recognition receptions — one at CUNA & Affiliates' Governmental Affairs Conference (GAC) and one at World Council's World Credit Union Conference. With your payment receipt, you will also receive a special Supporters report on activities made possible by your support. The report is in CD-ROM PowerPoint format, suitable for reporting back to your constituency or board.
We recommend a three-year agreement and the commitment to work on two-to-three main focus areas. The agreement would be automatically renewed unless one of the parties withdraws.

Samoan boxer's injury shows sweet science's danger
BEIJING (AP) Farani Tavui tried so desperately to keep his feet. The Samoan boxer staggered and shuffled around the Olympic ring, his once-sharp footwork scrambled into a stupor from a few well-placed punches to his head.
Tavui fell once but got up to meet the referee's count. He then stumbled again and finally collapsed onto his back unconscious, his arms spread wide and his eyes shut.
The Chinese crowd shouted with mingled excitement and horror, quieting when a medical team strapped Tavui to a stretcher and whisked him away to a hospital so the next bout could begin.
The scary scene was exactly what amateur boxing didn't need as an Olympic opener.
After 18 months of remarkable reforms in judging and officiating for a sport that's been widely perceived as endemically corrupt for a generation, Tavui's injuries were a stark reminder of boxing's more timeless flaw.
Though its supporters can cite reams of statistics that show boxing is less perilous than most contact sports, and even though amateur fighters wear bulky headgear and impact-absorbing gloves to minimize injury, there's no way to eliminate the inherent violence that left Tavui on the canvas.
"Boxing gets a bad rap because the object is to hurt somebody, but it's really the safest contact sport out there because of the precautions we take," Canadian team leader Charlie Stewart said Sunday after his welterweight, Adam Trupish, came out of a 20-1 loss with significant swelling around both eyes.
"In the odd case, you get an accident, but hockey and football are much more dangerous," Stewart said. "It's a shame when something like (Tavui's injury) happens, because it gives a false impression to people."
AIBA spokesman Richard Baker said Tavui was in good, stable condition and could be released from the hospital Sunday. Charles Butler, the chairman of AIBA's medical commission and the ringside doctor at Tavui's fight, predicted as much after examining Tavui, but sent him to a hospital just in case.
Butler is a staunch defender of boxing's safety, particularly when compared with rugby, ice hockey and American football, which cause much higher occurrences of brain injury than amateur boxing.
"We want to keep it that way," said Butler, a cardiac surgeon from Kalamazoo, Mich. "We very much care not to have any neurologic injury, and the most important thing is not to be arrogant and to miss something. There was a tremendous amount of concern for this young man, and in a way, I almost feel bad, because I think it will be a very routine thing."
The random Olympic draw sometimes produces glaring mismatches, but Tavui wasn't obviously overmatched against Croatia's Marijo Sivolija-Jelica despite trailing 13-2. Butler believes Tavui simply got caught by a fairly innocuous punch on the side or back of his head, where just the right contact can disrupt anyone's equilibrium for up to 15 minutes.
"I don't enjoy such injuries, because it can always happen to me," Sivolija-Jelica said.
While Tavui's unconscious flop to the canvas was disturbing, it doesn't mean the fighter even had a concussion, Butler said. Losing consciousness doesn't necessarily indicate neurologic injury, which has more to do with the brain's impact on the skull.
Olympic boxing and prizefighting have major differences, and not just in the amateur scoring system based on punch statistics that de-emphasize overall damage to an opponent.
Pro fighters who essentially invite opponents to hit them, in the mold of WBA welterweight champion Antonio Margarito, wouldn't win many amateur bouts, while quick-handed defensive specialists like U.S. gold medalist Andre Ward or current U.S. welterweight Demetrius Andrade excel as amateurs.
Knockouts are rare in the amateur ranks, where referees watch over fights with extreme caution, sometimes stopping the action in the middle of big flurries simply to safeguard the health of a fighter who has taken too many clean shots.
But amateur boxing's safety precautions don't impress the medical associations of Britain, Australia and the U.S., which during the last 20 years have repeatedly called for bans on all boxing. The American Medical Association has long supported removing boxing from the Olympics as well.
Among the many boxing-related resolutions passed and reaffirmed by the AMA in the last two decades is a missive which bluntly "encourages the elimination of both amateur and professional boxing, a sport in which the primary objective is to inflict injury."

Defending champs advance to canoe, kayaking semis
BEIXIAOYING TOWN, China (AP) The defending Olympic gold medalists in men's canoe double and women's kayak put up the best times Wednesday.
In the men's canoe double, brothers Peter and Pavol Hochschorner of Slovakia had the best combined time after two heats Wednesday. Their mark of 186.73 seconds edged France's Cedric Forgit and Martin Braud, who finished the heats in 188.56 seconds.
The Chinese team of Hu Minghai and Shu Junrong, which beat the Hochschorners at the Oceania Continental championships in March, had the third-best time of 190.64 seconds. Ten teams will compete in the semifinals on Thursday, with the finals to follow.
In the women's kayaking singles event, defending Olympic champion Elena Kaliska of Slovakia produced the best combined time of 186.19. She'll be among 15 individuals who will compete in Thursday's semifinals in hopes of reaching the finals later in the day.
China's Li Jingjing, ranked fourth in the world, had the second-best time of 187.56. World No. 3 Violetta Oblinger Peters of Austria made the semifinals, but only posted the sixth-best combined time.

Tupper town opens bids for snowmobile trail groomer
TUPPER LAKE – The town board here is close to making a decison on the purchase of a used groomer to maintain snowmobile trails.
The request for the groomer went out to bid in August. During last Friday's board meeting, three sealed bids were opened, containing machines of various ages ranging in price from $59,850 to $123,850, plus shipping costs.
"They all have basically the same components; it's just the years are different," town Supervisor Roger Amell said as he reviewed the bids.
Before the board could vote on a machine, Councilman John Quinn questioned whether the town can afford the purchase.
"Can we afford that when we're quibbling over whether we can include $4,500 for a mower for the cross-country (ski) trails?" Quinn asked.
After some discussion, the board unanimously agreed to table the purchase and make a decision during this Friday's budget meeting.
The decision to seek bids for a new groomer came in August when Pete Edwards, trail coordinator with the Tupper Lake Snowmobile Club, told the board that improved equipment could make the club eligible for grants from the New York State Snowmobile Association. Edwards said the club's current groomer needs repairs and can't handle the area's 30 miles of trails.
The grants are distributed as a reimbursement to snowmobile clubs statewide to help cover costs associated with trail creation and maintenance. They would relieve that burden from the town and the Tupper Lake Snowmobile Club, which now shares those costs.
In June, the Tupper Lake Snowmobile Club submitted a funding application to the NYSSA and is expecting an answer sometime this fall.
Grant money from the NYSSA is derived from snowmobile registration fees and is disbursed to snowmobile clubs across the state to help pay for the creation and maintenance of local snowmobile trails. Eligible clubs must have networks of well-maintained trails, complete with signage.
"I understand the importance of the snowmobiling industry for the hotel owners, who are starving in the winter," Edwards told the board. "We've built a lot of new trails. We want to turn Tupper Lake into a snowmobile capital, sort of like Old Forge. In order to do that, we need better equipment."

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Reasons to Worry
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- A new school of thought has entered the stock market, Jim Cramer told "Mad Money" viewers Monday. This new contingent feels that going over the fiscal cliff wouldn't be all that bad.
The only problem is, that line of thinking is dead wrong.
Cramer said these newfound market optimists believe job losses won't come for months after going over the cliff, giving those in Washington more time to hammer out a deal, one that will most likely be retroactive to Jan 1. The optimists also think a rise in capital gains and dividend taxes won't affect that many investors because only 14% now have taxable investment accounts, down from 24% in years past.
But Cramer disagreed with these rosy outlooks, saying that without a budget deal by Jan. 1, company executives will have no choice but to lower earnings estimates starting on Jan. 2, a move that will send the stock market sharply lower.
With the economy surely headed into a recession, these same executives will be under immense pressure to start laying off staff soon as opposed to later.
But there are other reasons to worry, said Cramer, including the alternative minimum tax, which would snare up to 30 million unknowing Americans when they least expect it.
Finally, he said a deal is seemingly less likely with both Republicans and Democrats feeling they have the upper hand. There is no room for compromise when you believe the American voters are behind you, he said.
While the irony of the situation is that the "fiscal cliff"resulting from federal law was designed to be so horrible that it would force lawmakers to compromise, it now appears Congress may do just the opposite. That's why Cramer said investors need to stay flexible and be prepared for "deal or no deal," which may happen at any time.
Do Your Homework
Investors don't need to constantly search for new ideas, Cramer told viewers, especially if their old ideas are still working. That's why Cramer continues to recommend doing homework, circling back to the stocks already in your portfolios to see if they're still worth owning.
That's why Cramer took a second look at his "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em," series of stocks he debuted in October. Back then, Cramer said these market winners would be mutual fund favorites through the end of the year. Since then, the market plunged, then recovered and is currently down 3% from its October levels.
Amazon.com (AMZN) was Cramer's first pick in October and he said the company still has the same terrific story. The move to online retail continues and Amazon is assured to be at the front of the pack.

Every accredited seminary is required to have a field education program with students ministering under the oversight of field supervisors/mentors. Therefore, every student who graduates from Golden Gate Seminary must take TFE. The only exception is for students in the MTS degree program. MTS students may complete TFE or opt for the courses approved for substitution.
TFE may be taken after you have completed P1111 Foundations for Ministry or E1111 Foundations for Educational Leadership (please check the current GGBTS catalog ). TFE is normally taken during your second year of study.
May 15 is the deadline for applying to TFE for the following fall semester.
You should start considering where you will do your TFE the first week you are enrolled at GGBTS. Most students get plugged into a church soon after coming to campus. Others are already involved in serving in a church. Your TFE should match your passion for ministry and where you see God leading you to minister in the future. In other words, it should be a place that helps you gain the ministry skills that you will need in the future.
You will need to serve a minimum of 10 hours per week during your TFE ministry practicum. At least 6 of the 10 hours must be face-to-face ministry (teaching, preaching, leading a group, visiting, evangelism, etc.). TFE is also offered for variable credit: 10+ hours of ministry per week: 2 hours per semester; 20+ hours of ministry per week: 3 hours per semester; 30+ hours of ministry per week: 4 hours per semester. Credit hours requested must be contracted and specified in the TFE application.
Once you begin your TFE ministry practicum you will create a covenant of learning. It will specify the hours you will serve and your responsibilities in your ministry setting as well as learning and growth goals that you wish to achieve during your TFE.
A team providing constructive feedback and guidance to the student during the ministry practicum consisting of:
Peer Reflection Group Leader – your on-campus or online GGBTS professor
Peer Reflection Group – your on-campus or online class
Field Mentor – your ministry supervisor who meets specific qualifications, has been enlisted and identified on the TFE application, and has received the required field mentor training
Spiritual Formation Mentor – provides spiritual guidance during your ministry practicum, has been enlisted and identified on the TFE application
Ministry Reflection Group – a group of ministry recipients and/or ministry partners enlisted after your TFE class begins
See the TFE Handbook for a more detailed description of each of these.
Your Field Mentor will be your supervisor during your ministry practicum. You will meet with them weekly for a minimum of one hour. They will hold you accountable and provide guidance and encouragement as you serve in your ministry setting and pursue your covenant goals.
Your Field Mentor may have had previous supervision training, but not all training is equal. Your Field Mentor will understand our philosophy of supervision at GGBTS, the unique features of our TFE program, and our commitment to the ministry of supervision. It is also to be to your benefit to know and understand that your Field Mentor has been equipped to work with you in our program.
No matter what we do in ministry, it is spiritual in nature. We have discovered through experience that Field Mentors tend to focus upon ministry skill formation more than spiritual formation. Your Spiritual Formation Mentor will help you focus on how you are growing spiritually during your TFE.

Published in Year of Faith
Keywords: Year of Faith, contemplative prayer, Catechism of the Catholic Church, faith
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Catholic Online) - Faith is an immense gift from God. It is through the gift of faith that we are able to see the invisible in the visible world. As we read in the Letter to the Hebrews, "Only faith can guarantee the blessings that we hope for, or prove the existence of the realities that at present remain unseen" (Hebrews 11: 1).
When we pick up the Bible and read it, it is faith that allows us to see that this not an ordinary book, instead, it is the very word of God: inspired and without error.
When we gaze upon the Tabernacle, it is faith that allows us to see not ordinary bread, but the Jesus, the Bread of Life.  Â
When we look upon a Catholic priest, it is faith that allows us to see through his human frailties and see him for who he is: an Alter Christus, another Christ.Â
When we see our neighbor, it is faith that permits us to see Jesus in every person.
When we gaze upon the mountains, the valleys, the oceans and the sky, it is faith that allows us to see the beauty of the Creator.Â
Faith is a gift. It is a gift that we receive through the Sacrament of Baptism. But, faith needs to be fed and it needs to be proclaimed.Â
Faith is nourished through a serious spiritual life and through the thoughtful study of our Catholic Faith.
Faith must be proclaimed. "What I say to you in the dark, tell in the daylight; what you hear in whispers, proclaim from the housetops" (Matthew 10: 27).
Contemplative Prayer
A number of years ago, my spiritual director turned my spiritual life upside down. He introduced me to the gift of contemplative prayer. I must admit that at first I was a bit hesitant to journey into this unknown way of praying, but upon my spiritual director's gentle insistence, I made the decision to take him seriously.Â
It is a decision which has been one of the most important decisions of my almost twenty-five years as a Catholic priest.
Contemplative prayer is an immense gift that needs to be rediscovered during the Year of Faith that we have just begun.Â
Anyone today who affirms "I believe" is a survivor.Â
We have survived a modern history of wars, death camps, persecutions and terrorist attacks. We have survived scandal after scandal and the disappointment of institutional collapses both in the Church and in society.Â
We have survived our dysfunctional families and a secular culture which is increasingly anti-Christian.Â
Contemplative prayer is essential for the times that we live in so that the gift of faith may be re-ignited and burn ever so brightly.Â
We may be tired of believing.Â
Contemplative prayer will renew us and allow us to believe anew.Â
So, what is contemplative prayer?Â
The Catechism of Catholic Church defines contemplative prayer with these words: "Contemplative prayer is the prayer of the child of God, of the forgiven sinner who agrees to welcome the love by which he is loved and who wants to respond to it by loving even more. But he knows that the love he is returning is poured out by the Spirit in his heart, for everything is grace from God. Contemplative prayer is the poor and humble surrender to the loving will of the Father in ever deeper union with his beloved Son" (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2712).
Contemplative prayer is not a method of prayer. Instead, contemplative prayer is a free, unmerited gift of the Holy Spirit. Any baptized Christian can receive this gift and every baptized Christian should ask for this gift.Â
"Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. For the one who asks always receives; the one who searches always finds; the one who knocks will always have the door opened to him" (Luke 11: 9-10).
Contemplative prayer? Who me? Isn't that something for monks and cloistered nuns?
Contemplative prayer is for everyone.Â
But, speaking of the monastery, how would you like to have a spiritual life as described by John Cassian (c.350 - c.435)? "It is not easy to know how and in what respects spiritual tenderness overwhelms the soul. Often it is by an ineffable joy and by vehement aspirations that its presence is revealed. So much so that the joy is rendered unbearable by its very intensity, and breaks out into cries that carry tidings of your inebriation as far as a neighboring cell.
Sometimes on the contrary, the whole soul descends and lies hidden in abysses of silence. The suddenness of the light stupefies it and robs it of speech. All its senses remain withdrawn in its inmost depths or completely suspended. And it is by inarticulate groans that it tells God of its desire. Sometimes, finally, it is so swollen with a sorrowful tenderness that only tears give it consolation."
Older works of spirituality distinguished between acquired and infused contemplation. Acquired contemplation considered the personal human actions that the individual can do during prayer time. Infused contemplation was the name given to the moment when God takes over and all human intellectual activity ceases.
Modern authors no longer make this distinction. Contemplative prayer is seen as a gift of the Holy Spirit.Â
"And in this way one comes to the sacred emptiness and detachment from thinking which characterizes the mystical state. There may come a time when even the word Jesus is no longer necessary because a total unitive silence reigns in the heart; and here again one is in nakedness and darkness with no other light than that which burns in one's heart" (William Johnston, S.J., The Inner Eye of Love, p. 95).Â
There are two methods of prayer that prepares and predisposes us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer. The first, and most effective method is Centering Prayer and the second method is called Lectio Divina. Let us consider both methods next week.Â
In the meantime, let us continue our journey during this amazing Year of Faith. "With so many witnesses in a great cloud on every side of us, we too, then, should throw off everything that hinders us, especially the sin that clings so easily, and keep running steadily in the race we have started" (Hebrews 12: 1).

Ecosystem Roles
The Bartholomea annulata are members in a number of symbiotic relationships. They host zooxanthellae, Symbiodinium sp. dinflagellate algae that grow within the cells of the anemone aiding in biological functions and providing color.
They are also part of an association with a number of Crustacea species. Many small crustaceans such as the Periclimenes yucatanicus and the Alpheus armatus receive protection within the tentacles of the anemone and also may perform cleaning functions for the anemone. (Colin, 1978)

Cage 720
Restoration Drama Collection, 1660-1716
Acquisition And Processing Information
This collection of Restoration plays was purchased from James & Devon Gray Booksellers in 2007. It was processed in 2007 and 2008 by Andrew McCarthy, Lisa Sikkink, and Toria Johnson.
Extent/Quantity Information
Number of Containers: 8
Linear Feet of Shelf Space: 4
Collection Description
This collection of 130 titles (with various fragments) represents the work of more than fifty English playwrights. Notable authors include Sir George Etherege, Ben Jonson, Thomas Shadwell, and John Dryden (multiple works). The playwrights themselves are representative of varying social classes and backgrounds; the collection includes plays by multiple Poets Laureate, common actors, and university-educated men. Featuring work by members of the Whig Kit Kat Club, the materials could serve as a showcase of the professionalization of playwriting. The collection also includes pieces written as singular efforts; many of these plays are unanthologized and rare.
Though works of both tragedy and tragicomedy are represented in the collection, most of the plays are grounded in sexual comedy and flirtation; the plotlines show a secondary focus on women and humorous, foppish characters. The majority of the items are unbound and fragmented, as they were likely used to make "sophisticated" copies (items made complete by adding missing portions from other copies). Most commonly, the body of the text remains largely intact; the introductory materials are frequently absent. Marginalia is included on some of the plays, and there are handwritten notes within the loose fragments at the end of the collection.
Collection Arrangement
The collection is organized alphabetically by author's last name, with anonymous plays, plays of uncertain authorship, and fragments at the end of the sequence. The Dryden collection is found after the fragmentary pieces. Each entry lists the author's last name, title of the play, and transcribed title page information (if present). The date is given where possible, as well as information regarding missing pages. Brief biographical information for some of the authors is given with the author's first listing within the collection.
Additional Restoration plays held by MASC can be located using the online catalog of the WSU Libraries.
English drama -- Restoration, 1660-1700
English drama -- 17th century
English drama -- 18th century
This collection is open and available for research use. Some items are extremely fragile and/or damaged.
Sources Used
Information regarding the dating of the plays was taken from:

Mount Tops Canisius in MAAC Opener
from press release
Md. --
Mount St. Mary's junior defender Justin Schmidt (Great Mills, Md./St. Mary's Ryken) opened the scoring four minutes into the game with his first career goal. The Golden Griffins (0-4, 0-1 MAAC) countered with goals from Jimmy Haney and Mike Benzinger to take a 2-1 advantage with 5:40 left in the opening quarter. Brett Schmidt was able to even the score at 2-2 with 20 seconds left in the first quarter.
Canisius regained the lead, 3-2, on Haney's second goal of the game with 7:55 left in the half. The Mount (2-2, 1-0 MAAC) was able to take control of the game by scoring the next goals.
Lehrer started the streak with a natural hat trick to close out the scoring in the first half. He tied the score on a feed from freshman Andrew Scalley (Arnold, Md./Archbishop Spalding) with 4:01 left in the half. Lehrer then gave the Mount the lead for good with an extra-man goal on a feed from Brett Schmidt. He closed the half with a goal on another feed from Brett Schmidt with 55 seconds on the clock.
In the third quarter, Mount St. Mary's goalkeeper T.C. DiBartolo (Bowie, Md./Archibishop Spalding) took control of the game, making eight saves, including several point-blank shots. The offense chipped in with goals from sophomore Eric Ososki (Harrisburg, Pa./Central Dauphin) and Scalley to make the score 7-3 after three quarters of play.
51 seconds into the final quarter, Lehrer posted his fourth goal of the year on a feed from Bryant Schmidt (Great Mills, Md./St. Mary's Ryken). Lehrer, who entered the game tied for third in the nation with 4.00 goals per game, now has a team-high 17 goals on the year.
Canisius stopped the Mount's scoring streak on a goal by Adam Jones, but the Mount then rattled off three unanswered scores for a commanding 11-4 lead. Lehrer's fifth goal of the year started the run while defender Russell Moncure (Alexandria, Va./T.C. Williams) added his first career goal for the Mountaineers. Mark Stapor (Herndon, Va./Bishop O'Connell) notched his first goal of the season to close the run for the Mount.
Simon Giourmetakis and Jones rounded out the scoring for Canisius while Brett Schmidt completed his hat trick with goals in the final five minutes of the game.
Canisius held a 31-to-27 advantage in shots in the game and a 33-to-28 margin in ground balls. DiBartolo made 15 saves for the Mount while Sean Callahan posted four for the Golden Griffins.
Lehrer tied his career high of five goals in the game while Brett Schmidt's six-point game (3g, 3a) was also a career best. Scalley was the only other Mount player to post a multiple-point game with a goal and an assist.
The Mount returns to action on Saturday, March 27, with a 1:00 p.m. game at Wagner.
Sophomore Cody Lehrer (Baltimore, Md./Dulaney) scored five goals while sophomore Brett Schmidt (Great Mills, Md./St. Mary's Ryken) added three goals and three assists to lead Mount St. Mary's to a 13-6 win over Canisius in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference opener for both teams at Waldron Family Stadium on campus.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (80 votes).
In short: Great RaceIn full: Visited from Gloucester to run this race with a local runner who is a friend. Great little race, a few hills but I got a PB despite the rain and horrible weather (I hate running in the rain). Nice local support and great medal and little bag (and I got a T Shirt to). Overall a great race and I would do it again.Date of review: March 21, 2015
In short: Glorious river and estuary scenery.In full: A super race despite the biting wind. Fast course with definite PB potential. Hanging around for the t-shirt was grim in the cold as the queues for baggage and shirts were not made clear. Date of review: May 17, 2012
In short: Fast despite undulating first few milesIn full: I didn't mind the T-shirt, but I did the mind the queues for the shirts and the mild chaos surrounding bag storage. I got very cold waiting. But I think this is partly testament to how popular this race is becoming and it's the race that really matters, after all. Some tweaking next year will sort this out for sure. V. good marshalling and nice support from the crowd in Bideford.Date of review: March 17, 2012
In short: Good fast race with the odd spot of music en route!In full: A great course, with the first half undulating. Each incline was immediately followed by a decline allowing you time to recover. The second half was virtually flat. A good mix of runners. Particularly enjoyed the musical interlude and the bagpipes based at the start/finish which helped motivate me that last half mile. However was disappointed with the technical t-shirt. Even though it's a small, it's large and shapeless and unlikely to be worn. However, this doesn't detract too much from a great run, even if there was a freak hail storm halfway through!Date of review: March 7, 2012
In short: Great organisation, scenic, PB potential, disappointing t-shirtIn full: First half has a slight climb but the 2nd half is as flat as you are likely to get in the south west.Fantastically organised, bit of congestion in the first mile as runners sort their speed out but no problems what so ever.They changed where you get your t-shirt from previous time I did it and the queue was horrendous. Just dish them out at the end like normal. Although the t-shirt was one of the most boring I have ever had, real shame :( Nothing on the front!The only reason I would not do it again is that I find the route too boring and flat.Date of review: March 5, 2012
In short: Otterly great race, shame about the T shirtIn full: This race attracts a large number of club runners from Devon & Cornwall so there is always a good atmosphere. It's well organised and fairly fast. If you are lucky you will get free parking near the clubhouse. Hot showers and all the hospitality at the club were great thanks. Good support by marshalls, local pipe and drum bands and St Johns Ambulance (had a great community feel). My only niggle was the large number of runners (mainly non club) wearing MP3 players which made the race feel less sociable than last year (subjective I know). The freebie technical T shirt needs to be sexed up a bit! A bit bland printed only on the back mostly with the sponsors names!Overall though, a great race.Date of review: March 5, 2012
In full: An excellent way to spend a Sunday. There was glorious sunshine which only added to the ambiance. Spectators encouraged runners and bands were place at various points of the race, very uplifting I found. Received a technical tee shirt at the end. Will definitely have this event marked in my diary for next year!Date of review: March 14, 2010
In short: FastIn full: Well organised, the scenery was lovely ( particularly on my bike the afternoon beforehand- when i could cycle without having to stand up as hills gentle) - small bottles at water stations....and despite 3degreesC east wind there was a local ice cream van at the end...yum. Unforgettable as i broke my pb's for 6m/10k/10ml and indeed half! (well if you don't count the times from 1986)Date of review: March 11, 2010
In short: A great race in a lovely part of the world.In full: A largish entry for a small town half. Very good organisation. The course is in the main rural, scenic and very quiet. The first half is undulating with a couple of small but cheekier inclines. The second half is along the Tarka Trail which I presume follows the path of a disused railway with any inclines being extremely gentle. The organisers made a brilliant effort to create a real carnival atmosphere in the populated areas that gave the event a real buzz and didn't make you feel forgotten about-as can be the case with some quiet rural courses. Registration etc was free from fuss. Date of review: March 11, 2010
In short: My first Bideford, thoroughly enjoyed it and will be back next year.In full: Well done Bideford! Very well organised, lovely touches, jelly babies, water with lids off, drummers, highland band, encouraging marshals, felt very safe on the road sections.Thoroughly enjoyed it! And a PB too!

Nielsen to Acquire Arbitron for $1.26B: Hot Trends
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Popular searches Tuesday on the Internet include Nielsen(NLSN) after the television ratings company agreed to pay $1.26 billion to acquire radio ratings company Arbitron(ARB) .
The $48-per-share deal represents a 26% premium to Arbitron's closing price on Monday.
With Arbitron, Nielsen said it would expand its "Watch" measurement that weighs consumer ratings across multiple platforms to areas like streaming audio and media consumption away from consumers' homes.
The transaction has been approved by the boards of both companies. Nielsen said the deal should add 13 cents a share to its adjusted profit a year upon completion.
Instagram is trending as the social photo sharing Web site announced changes to its terms and conditions.
Among the changes set to take place on Jan. 16, 2013, Instagram said it has the right to sell users' photographs without asking for permission or sharing revenue with users. Under the new policy, Instagram's owner, Facebook (FB) , claims it has the right to license all public Instagram photos to companies or organizations and users cannot opt out. The only way Instagram users can avoid having their photos subject to commercial use is to delete their accounts before the changes go into effect in January.
The changes have sparked an outpouring of anger online.
Facebook announced its plans to acquire Instagram in April, and ended up paying $715 million in cash and stock for the company. The two entities have said they will remain separate, but integrate their services more.
Toyota(TM) is another popular search. Toyota must pay a record $17.4 million fine for failing to report defects and delaying a safety recall.
The fine is the highest fine allowed by law from the National Highway Traffic Administration and the largest single fine ever issued to a car company over safety defects. It is the fourth fine against Toyota in the past two years.
Toyota said it agreed to pay the fine but has not admitted to any wrongdoing. The company said it agreed to the settlement in order "to avoid a time-consuming dispute." It also said it plans to focus on strengthening its data collection and evaluation to ensure it takes action more quickly in the future.
The fine pertains to a June recall of Lexus SUVs in which the driver's-side floor mats can trap the gas pedal and cause the vehicle to suddenly speed up. The NHTSA said Toyota failed to report the problem within five days of discovering it, as required by law.
The chatter on Main Street (a.k.a. Google, Yahoo! and other search sites) is always of interest to investors on Wall Street. Thus, each day, TheStreet compiles the stories that are trending on the Web, and highlights the news that could make stocks move.

"Dress for the job you want, not for the job you have"
"Leaving a little to the imagination is sexy"
These are just a few of the pieces of advice handed down from first-time life coaches and stale fortune cookies. These words of wisdom continue to be handed out like prostitution leaflets on a Vegas street because they are tried and true, for the ages, informative instructions that continue to inspire and reward.
As someone who has been certified in EUTS (Everything Under The Sun) from the Professional Institute of Placeimadeup, I feel compelled to bestow some of my (not yet) patented words of higher knowledge to my readers, especially the intellectually inferior among you (no Le Names, but you know who you are.)
Knowing how to carry oneself is important because it can mean the difference between getting the job or getting a friendly email that says 'You were one of the worst applicants we've ever had. Ever' but disguised in a thinly veiled 'Did not meet the requirements'. I know what you meant, Janice Beekman of Mansonite Bros. Corp. LLC.
Dressing appropriately and stylishly can also mean the difference between a flirtatious look of interest from that attractive person across the room and that attractive group pointing at you and laughing from across the room.
To alleviate any gender confusion, I have separated the tips into two categories: Men and Women. For those of you who fit into neither or both categories, take away whatever resonates with you. Also, which bathroom do you use? I mean, like, in public. Whoa, whoa, I'm not judging! I'm just curious.

Nice to see the Delboy, named after Paulie's son Derek (his nickname) on the list.I've had six of those pies and have been fortunate enough to visit nine of the 12 pizza joints listed. Some I won't be able to try because they have meat, but I need to get to Forcella for sure. Have not made it to there, or to The Mark or The Modern yet.Great list of pies for sure, thanks for posting Norma!

While it would be nice to dedicate one yixing teapot to every kind of oolong I drink, it would simply be too costly, and I'm not quite prepared to spend that much. For the time being, however, I have gone and purchased 2 yixing teapots, (pictured here) both of which I plan to dedicate to oolongs. My question is, what would be the ideal way to split them? Which oolongs would I brew in each one, so I don't mix the flavours?
Initially, I was planning on splitting them up on Chinese/Taiwanese, but I figured this was a bad idea, seeing as both of them have a variety of flavours.
That being said, should I separate them based on their level of oxidation? On how visibly light/dark they are? Which common names (DHP, TGY, Bai Hao, Dong Ding, etc) would you group in such a manner?
Any input is appreciated

George Greer might have been forgiven for thinking that his closest brush with the limelight came early in his life, when he shared a house at college with future rock star Jim Morrison.
But the Terri Schiavo case has propelled the quiet, polite man onto the international stage as the judge who faced down, first, his governor, then Congress and the president of the United States.
Few judges anywhere have weathered the storm that has swirled around Greer since he ruled in 2000 that Schiavo would not want to be kept alive with a feeding tube. Religious protesters say he's guilty of judicial homicide. Some want him impeached. A man in North Carolina was arrested and accused of offering a bounty for Greer's murder and the killing of Schiavo's husband.
When friend Mary Repper talked to Greer recently, he avoided any discussion of the pressures he is under. Instead, the judge wanted to pass along thanks to a friend of Repper's who had written him a supportive note.
"He sounded a little tired," Repper said. "The note from my friend meant a lot to him because there has been so much noise in the other direction."
Greer, 63, is saying nothing about the Schiavo case. A national TV news program even offered a Greer friend theater tickets if he could land them an interview with the judge. The ploy failed.
"The really difficult part of this job," Greer said in an interview with the St. Petersburg Times earlier this month, "is that you can't defend yourself."
Greer is a conservative Republican and a religious man. Friend David Kurland, a Pinellas lawyer, has said, "George is the religious right."
Greer is a native of Brooklyn whose family moved to Dunedin when he was 4. He majored in marketing at Florida State University, where he lived under the same roof with Morrison for one semester. Greer later earned a law degree at the University of Florida.
He settled into a Clearwater practice, specializing in zoning and land use issues. He married, had twin boys, divorced in the mid 1970s, and later remarried.
Greer ran for Pinellas County Commission in 1984, challenging the board's only Democrat. He campaigned on his opposition to building a baseball stadium in Pinellas County (which would eventually be built) and won narrowly.
In 1992, he won a seat on the Pinellas-Pasco circuit bench, running unopposed.
One of Greer's few encounters with controversy - before Terri Schiavo - came in 1998, when he denied an injunction for a woman seeking protection from her husband. The man later killed the woman.
Greer defended his action, saying the woman had not listed any acts of previous violence by the man.
Nothing, however, could prepare Greer for the blistering attacks that came with the Schiavo case.
Last year, he drew his first opponent in a judicial race, largely, colleagues believed, because of Schiavo. Greer handily won re-election.
Recently, the pastor at Greer's church, Calvary Baptist Church in Clearwater, suggested "it might be easier for all of us" if he quit attending.
"But you must know that in all likelihood it is this case which will define your career and this case that you will remember in the waning days of life," Calvary Pastor William Rice wrote to Greer.
Greer quit the church.
In the interview with the Times, the judge said the case had not shaken his own faith in God.
Greer, a Southern Baptist, said he took an oath to follow the law.
"There are no Ten Commandments out there," he said, pointing to his outer office.

Born in Paris in 1840, Monet grew up in Le Havre. Edouard Manet was an influence on his figure compositions of the 1860s, while the informal style of his later landscapes originated in works such as 'Bathers at La Grenouillère', painted in 1869, when Monet worked with Renoir at Bougival. Monet was the leading French Impressionist landscape painter. He exhibited in most of the Impressionist exhibitions, beginning in 1874, where the title of one of his paintings led to the naming of the movement.

Otis House
Boston, Massachusetts
A National Historic Landmark
Otis House is the last surviving mansion in Bowdoin Square in Boston's West End neighborhood. Charles Bulfinch designed the house for Harrison Gray Otis, a lawyer who was instrumental in developing nearby Beacon Hill, served in Congress, and was a mayor of Boston.
Otis House is the first of three houses Bulfinch designed for Harrison Gray Otis and his wife Sally Foster Otis. The house's design reflects the classical proportions and delicate detail of the Federal style.
Visitors learn about the Otis family's life in the Federal era and the later history of the house, when it served as a clinic and a middle-class boardinghouse. The restoration of Otis House and its brilliantly colored wallpapers, carpeting, and high-style furnishings, is based on meticulous historical and scientific research.

During our interview a few months before he retired in 2010, the Nobel laureate Desmond Tutu shared this heart-wrenching story of flying on a plane out of Lagos, Nigeria. As he boarded the plane, he was beaming with pride, he says, when he saw two black pilots shepherding the plane. While in the air, the plane experienced some bitter turbulence, and at that moment he admits:
"The first thought that came to my mind was 'Hey, there's no white men in that cockpit. Are those blacks going to be able to make it?'"
Archbishop emeritus Desmond Tutu is a pivotal figure in helping galvanize South Africa's improbable and peaceful transition from apartheid to democracy in the 1990s. And he's been an active participant ever since in the country's developing story ever since. Despite all the discussions and Truth and Reconciliation Commission hearings, he helps us realize that the amount of damage done to black South Africans' psyches is deep-seated. A sober reminder that history is present in incalculable ways.

All in all, however, we thought the pizza was excellent. I will definitely be trying use of that PAM some more and would experiment with upping the TF or dough ball weight here a little. Using my standard .125 TF, the dough ball would have weighed approx. 575 grams vs. the less than 400 grams that your 12" recipe resulted in. Just some comments for what they're worth, which may not be much I realize. But the pizza turned out great in any event. Definitely worth doing some more. --BTB
Okay, I made VCB's pizza to much success. Only one issue, I had bad oven spring on the sides of the crust that expanded to about 1/2 inch thick all the way around. I followed the recipe all the way except I only let it rise in the refrigerator for about 3 hours. Could that be the cause?And no offense, but I thought a little bland. I may increase the salt a bit or add garlic powder or something. But it was nice and crunchy...I may use for my thin crust, if I can keep the expansion downOh, I forgot, I actually put only 3 TBSP of oil in the dough, instead of 4. I read in other posts that it may be a bit too oily, so I reduced a bit.
Thanks for the reply BTB.And yes, I used both oils. The only variations that I made, were the fridge. time and the oil reduction, but other than that, I followed the recipe all the way.I have included pics here at your request. And don't get me wrong, it was an awsome pie and I will certainly make it again, with or without oven spring.
VCB, Hey great pie man. We really enjoyed it.Yes, the fridge rise was the second. One hour inside a warm oven. Not to warm, but enough.But I agree with the thin sides, it is optimal for us to. That's why I want to correct this. I'll try it again with all the oil and a longer cold rise.I saw your link on pressing out the dough. I also saw a video from Malnati's, which I am trying to emulate, and did press the dough thin up the sides, like you did. It's just right away in the 500 degree oven, the dough sprang out. Just thinking here, your flour amount, was that in weight or by measuring cup? I calculated the weight for my flour amount. Perhaps my hydration was off? Thanks, Tony
Thank you BTB, It tasted delish to. I tried to emulate Malnati's by adding the tomato chunks to the sauce. I will watch the dough on the sides of the pan next time and keep everyone updated. It was a very good crust. I hope that Ed has a good one for a stuffed pie!
Are you a north or south sider?
Wonderful video, as usual. Pizza looked delicious. I often wondered upon viewing some of your pictures if you used a shiny pan. While one that is shiny on the inside of the pan is all right, it is often thought best to have the outside of the pan dark or darkly seasoned. But in any event your pizzas always look great and one can't argue with success. I always look forward to seeing more of your material and work. BTW, when will you be opening your own pizzeria? --BTB
I just updated the video link a minute ago because the copyright police didn't like me using Esquivel, so I switched to some music from a friend's band . . ."
Isn't that unbelievable? I recall some years ago when the company that I worked at used music on the call waiting feature of the telephone system as well as music played over the work place sound system. Turns out that you CAN'T do that without paying an "honorarium" to some nameless organization that divvies up the $ $ $ payment in a dozen different ways! ! ! And there are private companies in business to seek out companies and individuals that use certain music without a license (i.e., honorarium) and get a reward or "bounty" for finding the terrible music "violators." Ridiculous, I think. --BTB

Two New York police officers were at the right place at the right time for a German shepherd named Charlie. They rescued the dog from drowning, according to CBS New York.
The 8-month-old had been pulled by the current for nearly an hour when two police officers, Ben Reiver and Edward Carr, went by on their boat. Something caught Reiver's eye. Both he and Carr got a little closer, according to the news source.
"I figured I'd go check it out. The closer we got, we realized it was a dog and it was alive," Reiver told the news source. "[His ears were] the only part above the water. His nose was up … He wasn't paddling anymore. He was trying to stay up."
Once the dog was taken to the shore and reunited with its owners, it was determined that the dog was in good health, just tired from the swimming, the news provider reports.
According to the New York Times, the two officers found the dog two miles from shore.

Topic: Textmate is running wrong version of Ruby
When I run ruby code in Textmate, it is running 1.8.2 that ships with Tiger. Since I have installed Ruby 1.8.6 in /usr/local/ruby, how can I tell textmate to look in the correct folder?
EDIT: actually running ruby code uses 1.8.6, but it is the validation that is using 1.8.2.

Selling a 1983 Cadillac Fleetwood Hearse in AS-IS condition. Painted Cleveland Browns colors for six years of glory as a tailgate mobile. Like Browns offense, has not run since December 2011. Needs some TLC under the hood. Flat front right tire since her last voyage. Passenger side view mirror a battle scar from the tailgate lot. 94,797 miles. Rollers in back great for sliding in/out coolers, tables, speakers, caskets? Had my fun with her, now it's time for a new home. Make some quick fixes to carry on as a Brownsmobile, or could be a great restoration project!
Asking $1,500 or best offer.

More:Statement of President Obama on on the Death of Vaclav Havel
Today, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton released a statement on the passing of Vaclav Havel. Secretary Clinton said:
"I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Vaclav Havel, the Czech Republic's first democratically elected president and leader of the Velvet Revolution. His death is a loss for the Czech Republic and for human rights defenders around the world. He was an inspiration to me and I was proud to call him a friend.
"He once said that his hope was for history to remember him as having done something useful. President Havel spent his life removing chains of oppression, standing up for the downtrodden, and advancing the tenets of democracy and freedom. When communism threatened the peace and prosperity of our world and covered Eastern Europe in a cloud of hopelessness, he wrote plays so powerful they changed the course of history and created new democratic opportunities for millions. And when the people of the Czech Republic were finally allowed to express themselves freely, they overwhelmingly chose a man who never wanted to be in politics.
"He did something more than useful -- he did something extraordinary, and history will remember it. Today, a black flag hangs over the Prague castle in honor of his life and commitment to a better world. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, the people of the Czech Republic, and all those who are committed to advancing human rights."
You can also read Secretary Clinton's statement here.
Perez Iyiola O. in Nigeria writes:
The story of this man, Vaclav Havel and what he did for his people in Czech's Republic in the day of barraging and beclouding Socialist Culture over all Eastern Europe, is very touching...Those were the days the West was jittery at the sorely and threateningly spread of Socialist Culture over Eastern and then already capturing several other continents of the World...Those were the days of cold war between the then two WORLD'S SUPERPOWERS viz: US and USSR...In those days Harvel achieved so well for his peoples, the Czechoslovakians, in putting them on the path of Democracy that lasts till date...Adieu Vaclav Havel, a great fighter and a great winner...
Ashin K. in Canada writes:
I would like to extend my heartfelt condolence to Mr.Vaclav Havel family. He helped our Burmese people's struggle to free from under military regime and he always supported our leader Daw Aung san Suu Kyi. We will never forget about your kind and honest. May you be heavenly place.
Venerable Ashin K.
Vice President, International Burmese Organization, NY, USA and Canada
Robert V. in Minnesota writes:
"The Velvet President: Why Vaclav Havel is our era's George Orsell and more.""The most important thing," Havel said in his final New Year's address as president, "is that new generations are maturing, generations of people who grew up free and are not deformed by life under Communist rule."
My greatest thrill was seeing Havel in person in Minnesota as he spoke.
Nelson writes:
definitely was a great loss to the world ....

There are a number of diseases and illnesses that can plague pets, causing painful symptoms and even death in severe cases. However, many pets never come close to suffering from these conditions thanks to vaccinations that are given throughout the pet's life to ward off the most common and deadly diseases.
Pets that visit their veterinarian on a regular basis are usually up to date on their shots and immunized against common diseases like rabies, which can be detrimental to human populations, too. This is one of many reasons why vaccinations are part of responsible pet care, said Dr. Dennis Dibbern, a West Virginia veterinarian.
"Vaccines have been instrumental in drastically reducing diseases like rabies throughout the country. Owners should not become passive with this important immunization, though, because rabies is still out there."
In addition to rabies in cats, vaccines can protect against feline distemper, feline herpes virus 1, calicivirus and feline leukemia, according to VCA Animal Hospitals. Dog shots can prevent canine distemper virus, parvovirus, adenovirus-2 and other common viruses.
In some states, pet owners are required by law to regularly vaccinate their pet against certain diseases. If you are moving to a new state with your cat or dog, make sure to check the local immunization laws for pets.

Celebrity wedding and Hollywood engagement updates.
SJP's wedding shoes
Sarah Jessica Parker covers the new issue of Martha Stewart Weddings. I love this photo. Because I love shoes. And I love shoe boxes. I love the look of stacked shoeboxes. And the green against the pink is so pretty. And I've always wanted to pose like this in a full skirt dress, seated, leaning forward. Full Story
Rachel at the wedding
There was a screening for Southpaw in Cannes on Friday. And some reported that Rachel McAdams was there alongside Jake Gyllenhaal. But on Saturday she was in Muskoka, 2 or so hours outside of Toronto, for her sister Kayleen's wedding. Pretty sure, given how close she is to her family, that she wouldn't have risked missing it to rush to France and come back on a tight turnaround. Full Story
Geri gets married
A Friday wedding! I love Friday weddings! Probably because we were married on a Friday. Ginger Spice became a wife today. In a very conservative dress. A surprisingly conservative dress. First wedding dresses usually are. Also…um… maybe it has something to do with the gossip around the situation? Christian Horner's parents reportedly refused to attend. Full Story
Amy Adams's wedding weekend?
FameFlynet, INFphoto.com/ Splash News
Amy Adams hit the gym yesterday before heading out for dinner with her partner Darren Le Gallo and their daughter. They've been together 14 years. Page Six reported earlier this week that they're getting married this weekend in LA. It'll be a small affair, not a Hollywood blowout. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
Nicki Minaj was hinting on Twitter on Tuesday that she'd had a really great night. Then she hinted some more that maybe it had something to do with a ring. After that, on Instagram, she posted a text exchange between her and Meek Mill:
I'm not big on romance but OK, that brought out a giggle. Because it feels like Teen Love, doesn't it? Look at that ring. This ring IS Teen Love!
I love Teen Love. Duana and I went back and forth on text celebrating Teen Love yesterday after she sent me the most beautiful article about Teen Love, or maybe it was an article about fingerbanging which, basically, is Teen Love. There are so many good lines but this is probably my favourite:
"Whenever a teen enters a new space they think: Could I fingerbang someone here?"
Anyway, Nicki Minaj is engaged. Teen Love is thriving.
Yours in gossip,
Coachella & a wedding
Beyonce was spotted at Coachella on Saturday. Her Coachella outfit? Valued at $8000. Click here for the breakdown. She showed it off on Instagram after getting off her private plane: Coachella 🌺🌸🌼🌻🐝 Full Story
His & Her Engagements
PEOPLE has confirmed that Jennie Garth is engaged to Dave Abrams. I didn't even know she was dating anyone. Google tells me that US Weekly reported that they were dating in January. Apparently Dave waited until her birthday to propose. Full Story
Robert Pattinson post-engagement
AKM-GSI/ Splash News
T-Pain claims it was an April Fool's Day joke. But US Weekly, E! News, and PEOPLE are all insisting that Robert Pattinson and FKA twigs are engaged, no prank, no fraud. Full Story
Wahlberg Brotherly Love
Slaven Vlasic/ Ray Tamarra/ Getty Images
Donnie Wahlberg and Dr. Jenny McCarthy were on the Howard Stern show yesterday, and the headline making the rounds is about Jenny and The View maybe or maybe not unofficially asking her back. Who cares. There's another clip floating around that is far more interesting, concerning Donnie Wahlberg and his brother Mark. Full Story
Mr & Mrs Depp
Jason Kempin/ Getty Images
It was reported last week that Johnny Depp would be marrying Amber Heard on his private island this weekend. They're still going to the private island. And there will still be a ceremony there. But they made it official on Tuesday at his home in West Hollywood. According to an US Weekly Full Story
Johnny Depp's island wedding
Kevin Mazur/ Getty Images
Page Six reports today that Johnny Depp will marry Amber Heard the weekend of February 7/8 on his private island in the Caribbean. That's Grammys/BAFTA weekend. According to Page Six they're expecting 50 guests, mostly just family and very close friends – Marilyn Manson? – and because the island is, really, just an island with mostly undeveloped land, guests will be staying on a yacht. Full Story
