COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Oct. 19, 2011) – The U.S. Women's National Team lost to Cuba 25-17, 25-16, 25-27, 25-21 in the Pan American Games semifinal round in Guadalajara, Mexico.
The U.S. Women, with seven players making their international senior-level debut, will face the loser of the other semifinal match between Brazil and Dominican Republic in the bronze-medal match on Thursday at 6 p.m. local time (4 p.m. Pacific Time).
Cuba never trailed in the opening set, moving out in front 11-5 and holding at least a three-point lead to the 25-17 final score. Team USA held a 10-8 advantage in the second set, but a 6-1 Cuban run to 21-14 proved the difference in the 25-16 victory. The American used an 11-3 scoring run to overcome a 12-7 deficit in the third set, then needed to save three match points before winning 27-25 to push the match to a fourth set. After a see-saw affair in the fourth set, Cuba came back from an 18-17 deficit to win 25-21 by scoring six of the final eight points.
Cynthia Barboza (Long Beach, Calif.) scored a U.S.-high 14 points with all coming on kills. Alix Klineman (Manhattan Beach, Calif.), who played just the last two sets, added 12 points with nine kills, two aces and a block. Jessica Jones (Naperville, Ill.) contributed five kills and four blocks for nine points. Cassidy Lichtman (Poway, Calif.) pocketed six kills and two aces for eight points, while Carli Lloyd (Bonsall, Calif.) charted three blocks, two aces and two kills for seven points. Lauren Gibbemeyer (St. Paul, Minn.) scored five kills and two blocks for seven points, while Angie Forsett (Lake Worth, Fla.) collected four kills. Courtney Thompson (Kent, Wash.) rounded out the scoring with a block and ace for two points.
"This team has good chemistry," Lloyd said in regards to the comeback that started in the third set. "Even though it is our first time together, we really trust each other. Courtney (Thompson) really changed the momentum of the game. She called a good offense."
The U.S. converted 36.3 percent of its attacks with a .210 hitting efficiency (45-19-124), while Cuba converted 56.4 percent of its attacks via a .479 hitting efficiency.
"Cuba is a really good team," Lichtman said. "It took a while to adjust. We came out a little tentative, but by the third set, we had nothing to lose. They made great plays. It was hard to counter that. We're always happy to be in a place to play for a medal."
Cuba held a commanding 66-45 advantage in blocks to help offset 18 errors in the match to the Americans' 12 miscues. Cuba also held a 16-11 margin in blocks, while Team USA produced a slim 7-6 lead in aces. Team USA tallied a 59.3 positive reception percent with Tamari Miyashiro (Kaneohe, Hawaii) contributing 26 excellent receptions on 37 errorless chances. She added nine digs in the match. Meanwhile, Cuba's reception was limited to a 38.5 excellent percent.
"Cuba is a powerful team," Lloyd said. "We didn't dig as many balls as we should have, especially in the first couple sets. We need to play our game. That wasn't really us today. We have a lot of fire, but today was our first big push we've faced."
Andy Banachowski, who is serving as head coach for the U.S. Women at the Pan American Games, started Forsett and Barboza at outside hitter, Jones and Gibbemeyer at middle blocker, Lichtman at opposite and Lloyd at setter. Miyashiro was the libero for the match. Klineman replaced Forsett to start the third and fourth sets, Thompson was a sub in all but the second set. Kayla Banwarth (Dubuque, Iowa) was a serving sub in the final two sets, while Regan Hood (Carrollton, Texas) was a sub in the second set.
"We came with the hope of winning a medal and the possibility still exists for us," Banachowski said. "Cuba put a lot of pressure tonight with the service. I am really proud of how the team played in the third and fourth sets."
Cuba produced six players in double-figure scoring led by Yoana Palacios Mendoza's 25 points. Kenia Carcases Opon and Gyselle de la Caridad Silva Franco each totaled 14 points.
"USA is a team we respect a lot," Cuba coach Juan Carlos Gala said. "We could achieve the goal on the first two sets with our service. USA knew how to recover and went out looking for the victory on the third and fourth. They are a team with a lot of courage, and they showed by winning their pool in the tournament."

Cuba scored three unanswered points to take a 7-4 advantage in breaking a 4-all tie in the third set. Cuba extended the lead to 11-6 with a 4-1 scoring run. Barboza followed a Gibbemeyer block with a kill, then Klineman served an ace to narrow the gap to 12-10 at a Cuba timeout. Out of the break, Klineman served a second straight ace to close the deficit to 12-11. Klineman knotted the score at 15-all on a kill after a Lichtman spike. Team USA went into the second technical timeout leading 16-15 following a Cuba error, the third straight point for the Americans. The U.S. increased its lead to 18-15 on a block and kill by Jones out of the break to cap a 5-0 scoring run. Cuba responded with three unanswered points to tie the set at 18-all. Cuba took the lead back at 22-21 on an ace. Out of a Team USA timeout, Cuba upped its lead to 23-21 with an American error. The U.S. saved two match points with kills from Barboza and Lichtman to tie the set at 24-all. Team USA took the lead at 26-25 on a Jones block after a Lichtman kill, then the Americans captured the set with a Jones overpass kill. Klineman scored seven points in the set, while Jones added five points. The U.S. notched five blocks and two aces in the third set.
Team USA took a 3-0 lead to start the fourth set with a Klineman kill, Lichtman ace and Lloyd block. Cuba scored four straight points capped by an ace and block to gain a 4-3 advantage. The Americans regained the lead at 7-6 on a Barboza kill after a Cuba service error, then the U.S. went into the first technical timeout up 8-6 following a Cuba attack error. Cuba scored the first three points out of the break to assume a 9-8 advantage. Jones put the Americans in the lead at 10-9 with a block after a Barboza kill. The scoreboard swung to Cuba's favor at 13-11 on three straight points. Team USA responded with a Barboza back-row kill and Lichtman ace to level the score at 13-all. Cuba went into the second technical timeout on a block at 16-14. Team USA gained an 18-17 lead with a Klineman kill, Thompson ace and Cuba error. Cuba's Carcases served an ace to yield a 19-18 lead for her team. Cuba increased its advantage to 21-19, then 23-20 on an American attack error. Cuba finished off the set at 25-21 with a block.

Supporter funds help build Afghan credit unions, supply them with the proper equipment and provide literacy education for members. Read a member story.
Small farmers in Ethiopia typically struggle to find the technical assistance, market access and financing to move beyond subsistence farming to small scale, commercial production. WOCCU is helping these farmers learn new skills to increase productivity, form business partnerships to increase their marketability and access affordable loans that mutually benefit their community-based credit unions and them.
With Supporter donations, credit union staff and volunteers in Ethiopia will learn how to market to small farmers — both men and women — and bring them market information, savings and credit products they can use.
Read a member story.
WOCCU is working with the financial sector in Haiti to promote small business and employment growth in rural areas.
WF activated its disaster relief fund immediately following the Jan. 12, 2009, earthquake. Supporter donations brought tents, water and food to meet the immediate needs of credit union staff debilitated by the quake. Funds continue to help credit unions meet longer-term needs for infrastructure and psychological counseling for staff and members.
Small, rural credit unions in Kenya often lack the capital and networks necessary to invest in new technology or even in computer systems, drastically hampering their efficiency and limiting potential outreach. WOCCU is creating the first credit union-owned data service bureau to provide information processing and product support to small- and medium-sized rural credit unions so they can extend their services farther and faster in rural areas.
Using handheld technology, credit union staff are traveling to remote areas across Mexico to deliver savings, loans, insurance and remittances to people who have typically had access only to high-interest loans.
Supporter funds help train credit union staff and volunteers on new mobile technologies and agricultural lending, provide financial literacy training for members and establish the first community-owned ATMs in rural areas.
WOCCU is using new technology to strengthen a women's financial cooperative located in conflict-affected areas. By helping the rural credit unions become more safe and sound, the institutions are able to offer affordable and sound financial products to farmers and rural entrepreneurs.
With Supporter donations, credit union staff and volunteers are receiving training on management, computerization, agricultural lending and savings, and women members receive leadership training. Disaster relief donations in 2004 helped credit unions rebuild their institutions.
WF donations support a variety of initiatives that respond to the right every person has to financial access. Supporter funds give a boost to member-owned credit unions and help them bring dignified financial services to their communities.
Global initiatives include:
Belarus Credit Unions Organize
The Polish credit union foundation helped organize the first credit unions to operate in Belarus since the end of World War two. With financial support from WF and training from the Polish credit union foundation, the Belarus Republic National Credit Union Association formed. Today eight credit unions form the credit union association. Operations remain simple and products rudimentary. Continued support from WF supports training for staff.
WOCCU and Polish National Credit Union Association met with National Bank of Belarus officials to support credit union operations in Belarus.The Polish National Credit Union Association helped the Belarus National Bank officials prepare a draft credit union law now under consideration. .By forming the association, the Belarus credit unions can co-brand theircredit unions and pool their resources to obtain greater efficiencies needed by a small growing movement.Credit unions are a mix of professional association credit unions in thecapital city of Minsk, community credit unions in rural towns and smallbusiness owners in Minsk. Many of the leaders of the credit union movement in Belarus are small self employed and business owners who werenot satisfied with access to financial services from the banking sector.
Cambodia Building Fund 2007-2010
Ninety percent of the Cambodia population live in rural areas where over35% of the population live below the poverty line. (Cambodian Socio Economic Survey 2004. Ministry of Planning) While commercial banks and micro finance institutions serve the urban areas, there are few branchesof financial institutions in the rural areas.
Trust and sustainability are challenges to financial institutions in Cambodia. During te Khmer Rouge regime neighbors and family members wereencouraged to report offences that included operating a business or saving money. After the Khmer Rouge period, an influx of poorly managedmicro credit schemes, pyramid schemes and poor banking practices impaired public confidence in savings taking financial institutions.
Communities in rural areas not served by banks organized credit unions. While there was a strong commitment to serve their community, credit union volunteers found that it was difficult to grow their membership given the lack of trust in financial institutions. WOCCU has found in many countries that the presence of professional physical infrastructureprovides a stronger image of safety and soundness.
During the period of 2007 to 2009, WOCCU and Credit Union Foundation of Australia (CUFA) engaged in a joint initiative to build the public trustand consequently growth in Credit Unions of rural Cambodia. CUFA provided operational training to credit union groups organized by rural communities. Where the credit unions achieved sufficient membership size and operational systems, WOCCU provided funds, managed by CUFA, to construct a building for the credit union to operate from. Each community provided its own land plot.
New buildings were built for Knach Romeas in Prey Sangha village, Nirontarak Pheap in alang Krom village, Khemera in Bos Por village, Takream in Opongmon villageOmany in Omany village and Khvav in Tramkul village.
The results of the construction of premises for the credit unions resulted in improved trust in the credit union and consequently increased membership and increased savings.
Uganda Voluntary Supervision Program 2007-2010
WOCCU and Canadian Cooperative Association (CCA) provided financial and technical support to the Uganda Credit and Savings Cooperative Union (UCSCU) to establish within itself a SACCO Supervision Unit (SSU) to supervise SACCOs. Government policy development forecasts upcoming regulation and supervision of SACCOs in the near future. This program is intended to help prepare both SACCOs and their league for the supervised environment.
During a three year period the program installed tools and trained league staff in how to monitor, audit and examine 10 of the larger SACCOs. Training included internal controls, savings concentration, loan concentration, liquidity management, records handling, reconciliations, credit processing, governance standards and personnel management. The program also provided training in governance, prudential management, risk management, planning, asset liability management and branding to SACCO staff participating in the supervision program. Particpating SACCOs include: Kitgum, Pakwach Nam, Bushenyi Teachers, Agaru, Windsor, Luwero Teachers, Naddingira, Oribcing, Sembabule and Kyebando.
The program contributed to the UCSCU goal of promotion of SACCO savings mobilization through demonstration of safety achieved as a result of active supervision and commitment to financial disciplines. The safety of members' savings is contingent upon the pillars of disciplined management, good governance and third party supervision.
Membership in the participating SACCOs increased from 22,985 in 2006 to 33,084 in 2009.

Across the United States, almost 7.8 million children are living in homes where grandparents or other relatives are the householders, with more than 5.8 million children living in grandparents' homes and nearly 2 million children living in other relatives' homes. These families are often called "grandfamilies."
More than 2.5 million grandparents are taking on the responsibility for these children. Many other relatives also take on this responsibility, although data are not available on other relatives. Often they assume this responsibility with neither of the children's parents present in the home. In fact, nearly 1 million children are living in homes where the grandparent is the householder and neither parent is present in the home (comparable data are not available for children living in homes where another relative is the householder and neither parent is present.)
These grandparent and other relative caregivers and the children they are raising are often isolated. They lack information about the range of support services, resources, programs, benefits, laws and policies available to help them successfully fulfill their caregiving role. In addition, to better serve children, families and older adults, educators and program practitioners need access to information about these key resources. Policy makers also seek information and education about the issues facing these "grandfamilies." Therefore, in a unique national partnership, AARP, Brookdale Foundation Group, Casey Family Programs, Child Welfare League of America, Children's Defense Fund and Generations United have created the GrandFacts: State Fact Sheets for Grandparents and Other Relatives Raising Children.
GrandFacts State Fact Sheets for Grandparents and Other Relatives Raising Children are funded in part by AARP Foundation and Verizon Thinkfinity.

I'm relatively new in remote sending and hope that someone can help me with the follwing: I'm using Landsat 5 TM Level 1T data. On the USGS page I learned, that this means the following :"Level T1 provides systematic radiometric and geometric accuracy by incorporating ground control points while employing a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for topographic accuracy. Geodetic accuracy of the product depends on the accuracy of the ground control points and the resolution of the DEM used."
From the metadata I know that GLS2000 was used for the ground control points.
I have a old map (1:200000) and the satellite image doesn't fit perfectly on it. Now I need to know the accuracy of the satellite image to decide which one is more accurate and can be used as a reference. So my question is, what is the real accuracy of the landsat scene?

It's time for fun, quality time with your husband.
Wedding Inspiration for Every Zodiac Sign
Whether you're celebrating an anniversary or simply spicing up a blessedly-free weekend, these are the best date ideas that get you fun quality time with your husband.More
"On one of our first dates, my guy and I challenged each other to a 'triathlon' of activities we both liked," says Robyn H., 28, of Durham, NC. "We decided to compete in foosball, Pac-man, and pizza-eating. We were laughing the whole time, and now, part of the fun of 'triathloning' is coming up with three 'events' we can compete in. We've done ice skating, Connect Four, and M&M-eating, and another time we did swimming, diving, and onion ring eating."
If it turned Silver Linings Playbook's angry Pat (Bradley Cooper) into positive relationship material, just imagine what a class would do for your guy. Plenty of studios offer sessions for first-timers and couples, but if your guy's especially intimidated, consider booking a private lesson to start.

Monday, February 24, 2014 - Text by Gayle Alleyne | BWF
World No. 1 Lee Chong Wei has become the first player to contribute to the new BWF Equipment Donation Project.
The Men's Singles superstar (BWF home page) endorsed the Badminton World Federation (BWF) initiative, handing over some equipment to the world-governing organisation in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, recently. His and other donations will benefit children worldwide, giving them the opportunity to experience the joy of playing badminton through BWF's Shuttle Time programme.
"We have initiated this project to encourage the public to donate badminton rackets and other equipment which they may not be using anymore but which are still in good condition.
"All the rackets, shuttles, etc. we collect through the Equipment Donation Project will be sent to schools in lesser developed countries to deliver badminton to children. It's another aspect of Shuttle Time – our grassroots development programme which is focused on schools," explained BWF Secretary General, Thomas Lund.
"We want to make badminton the No. 1 schools' sport and this will help our efforts."
Starting with the upcoming Yonex All England Open Badminton Championships, there will be Equipment Donation booths at various BWF World Superseries and Grand Prix Gold tournaments at which players, fans and even equipment suppliers can drop off their contributions.
Each Member Association hosting an event at which equipment is collected will choose another Member Association to receive that donation.
Apart from giving some of their own equipment, elite players are also being asked to support this worthy venture with brief promos stating the following slogan: "Giving Every Child a Chance to Play. Donate Equipment Today."
Lee Chong Wei's team-mate, Koo Kien Keat (left), was the first to do so; offering his backing to the project.

text: Kenya Airways Operating Performance 3rd Quarter; Oct-Dec 2011 Kenya Airways releases its operating results for the third quarter ended 31st Dec 2011. The company put into the market place capacity totalling 3,560m seat kilometres which was 6.5% better than last year's level as a result of increased frequencies to several destinations and the launch of Jeddah operations in the third quarter. Capacity offered into Europe registered a 14.9% growth compared to the same quarter of prior year due to introduction of flights to Rome and double daily weekend flights to London. The capacity into Middle East, Far East and India regions remained at par compared to same period last year. The Northern Africa region capacity grew marginally by 1.9% owing to the introduction of double dailies to Juba in Southern Sudan on the Embraer aircraft to meet the rising demand for business travellers. Capacity availed into the East African region shrunk by 14.2% compared to last year largely as a result of operating combined flights to Bujumbura and Kigali as opposed to direct flights evidenced last year.

Christian Psychotherapy Services, Ph.D., LCSW, LPC, MD
Psychologists, Professional Counselors, Psychiatrists,
4460 Corporation Lane Suite 100, Virginia Beach, Virginia 23462
Grief and Loss is processed differently for each individual. Our counseling helps the client find the appropriate approach to deal with their personal loss issues. This includes Critical Incident Stress Debriefing as well as other Trauma Reduction techniques that reduce the risk of Post Traumatic Disorder. All therapy integrates spiritual and psychological issues appropriate to each individual's needs.
Laura Dabney, MD, MD
4542 D Bonney Rd., Virginia Beach, Virginia 23462
I approach grief and loss first and foremost with a great deal of empathy. It is exceptionally painful to have lost someone or something. I find most patients keep that pain buried inside which impacts their daily functioning. I then try to encourage patients to allow the pain to surface. Once emotions are out they no longer drive us and we can, once again, be in the driver seat.
Lisa O'Bryan, M.S. Ed.
Resident in Counseling
2228 Princess Anne Road, Virginia Beach, Virginia 23456
Grief and loss are emotions that never completely leave us. But therapy can help you acknowledge your feelings, understand how they have changed your life moving forward, and how to use your changes to create a positive future. Loss can be an amazing catalyst for change and empowerment to use one's life in positive ways that can benefit future generations.

Reviews for Potato-Bar Chili
"We loved this chili! So good on baked potatoes, easy, and not too caloric. Only thing I did different was to add more seasoning....I always use the chili seasoning that comes in the packets rather than just plain chili powder, and I added the majority of a packet, part of what had been used for something else, as we like more chili flavor. We then topped the chili with grated cheese after spooning it on the potatoes....added some calories, but Y-U-M-M-Y!!!!!!"
"We play cards with friends quite a bit and they have been delighted with this. It is a quick meal without much fuss. Thanks. jy"
"I've been making this for awhile, we love it. Another thing we use to top a baked potato is chicken or Steak Fajita mixture, makes a good quick meal."
"Made this for a family reunion and the whole crock-pot went quick as anything!! Tastes great, feels good to be eating something healthy and not high-calorie."

Brief SummaryRead full entry
H. heteropsis is similar to its closest relative, H. meleagroteuthis, in the uniform, dense pattern of complex photophores on the head, arms IV and the mantle but lacks tubercules. This species is common off the coast of Southern California (USA) and has been observed from submersibles many times. It is lethargic in response to disturbance by an ROV; movements are slow and deliberate, even when jetting, inking is rarely observed (Hunt, 1966). The geographical distribution is unusual in that two separate populations exist one in the North Pacific and one in the South Pacific (antitropical distribution). It is found in temperate regions on the eastern side of the Pacific. Off southern California it occupies mesopelagic depths during the day and migrates vertically at night, presumably to feed. Maximum recorded size is 132 mm ML (Voss, et al., 1998).

Here we go!
Mike Brown vs. Daniel Pineda
Round 1:
They touch gloves in the center and circle around each other cautiously to start. Yves Lavigne is our referee for this one. Pineda slips on a head kick attempt. Brown lets him get up, then goes to work with some looping rights. Knee by Pineda hurts Brown, but responds by driving Pineda across the cage with a takedown attempt that eventually plants Pineda on his back against the fence. Brown works hooks from the top, but Pineda reverses and puts him on his back. Pineda tries for mount, and Brown uses the opportunity to get to his feet. Solid left hook by Pineda gets through Browns defenses. Pineda shoots in low and Brown flips him over, landing on top in the final minute of the round. Pineda gets to his feet just as the horn sounds.
Round 2:
Pineda looks energized at the start of the second. He fires off a flying knee and Brown answers with a series of hooks. Pineda keeps the pressure on and then shoots for a takedown that brings Brown down. Brown is up quickly and has a hold of Pinedas leg. Pineda tries for a knee with the free leg and gets dumped on his head with a loud crash. Pineda sweeps and Brown gets to his feet. Brown batters Pineda with a series of damaging blows in the clinch. That seemed to take a lot of the starch out of Pineda. Were down to 90 seconds left in the round, and both men are looking weathered. Brown slips on a kick and Pineda begins to charge in, then goes down hard. Brown pushes him onto his back and does some work with elbows from Pinedas guard in the last minute of the round. Pineda fires back from the bottom, and Brown is cut around his eye. That doesnt look good, and theres the horn.
Round 3:
Big cheer from the crowd to start the third. Its been a good scrap to start us off. They trade in the center in the opening seconds of the final round, then Brown backs Pineda up against the fence and drops him with a big knee. Pineda looked like he might be done for a second, but hes recovered quickly and gets Brown in his guard. Browns staying busy from the top with punches and elbows. Pineda thinks about a triangle choke, but cant get it. Brown keeps working as Pineda slips off to the side and then to his back, a nightmare in slow motion. A minute left in the fight, and Pineda has the body triangle locked on. He likely needs a finish to win this, and Brown knows it. Hes in survival mode, and time is on his side. Ten seconds left, but Pineda cant even come close to sinking a choke.
Mike Brown def. Daniel Pineda via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)

Kyle Kingsbury vs. Glover Teixeira
Round 1:
Texeira slips a jab and hammers Kingsbury with a hard two-punch combo. He follows up with a hook and a straight right moments later. Seems like Texeira does not want to be here very long tonight. An uppercut by Texeira drops Kingsbury, and Texeira takes his back after some punches from the side. Kingsbury rolls and Texeira pounds on him some from the top. Kingsbury gets sloppy while looking for an escape and Texeira locks up the arm triangle choke. He slides off to the side and tightens it up. Kingsbury has no escape, and he has to tap.
Glover Texeira def. Kyle Kingsbury via submission (arm triangle choke) at 1:53 of round 1
Rejoice ever more. 1 Thessalonians 5:16
Thanks, Cathy, for starting the **SPOILERS** for us!
Jacob Volkmann vs. Paul Sass
Round 1:
Herb Dean is our referee for this one. He gives the signal and were underway. Sass starts out in a crouched stance, clearly mindful of Volkmanns takedowns. Just the same, Volkmann gets him on his back about 30 seconds into the fight. So much for that approach. Sass looks like hes thinking triangle choke, as he often is, but switches to on oma plata. Volkmann is out easily and back on top in Sasss guard. Sass slaps on a triangle -- his bread and butter -- and Volkmann is stuck. Sass attacks the arm as well, and thats all for Volkmann. Seems like he might have injured his arm in the process.
Paul Sass def. Jacob Volkmann via submission (triangle choke) 1:54 of round one
Wow! Nice submission, that was a good win for him. I'm not familiar with Paul Sass but Volkmann was a very tough opponent; I was really impressed with Paul's self-deprecating modesty during the post-fight interview with Joe.
Rejoice ever more. 1 Thessalonians 5:16
Bonnie, you started your thread first! I'm sorry, I was so busy copying and pasting by the time I was through you already had the post up. Should we flip a coin?
Yeah, if you blinked you missed those last 2 fights.
Rejoice ever more. 1 Thessalonians 5:16
Thanks again, Cathy!
Well that was quick....and not the outcome I was looking for!
Yeah, I was surprised too, Kevin!
Dan Hardy vs. Duane Ludwig
Round 1:
Josh Rosenthal is our referee. At the signal, Hardy and Ludwig meet in the middle and begin circling. Ludwig strikes first with a straight shot that wobbles Hardy. Hardy recovers quickly and clinches up against the fence. Hardy lands a nice right hand and an elbow on his way out of the clinch. Ludwig didnt like that. Head kick by Ludwig just misses. Hardy comes up short on a hook, and Ludwig pops his head back with a jab. Hardy tries for a takedown and gets kneed in the face, so he settles for a clinch. Again he finds a home for that right after disengaging. Hardy reaches out with a left hook that swats Ludwig on the button and sits him down. Hardy raises his hands in premature celebration, then realizes Ludwig isnt finished yet. He pounces with elbows after a right hand misses, and they find their mark. Ludwig is out. Hardys losing streak is over.
Dan Hardy def. Duane Ludwig via KO (elbows) at 3:51 of round one
Rejoice ever more. 1 Thessalonians 5:16
Jason Miller vs. C.B. Dollaway
Round 1:
No glove touch here. Yves Lavigne is our ref. Miller starts the fight with something resembling karate katas. Dollaway keeps a straight face. A big right hand by Miller wobbles Dollaway. Miller charges in recklessly and gets taken down, though nearly catches Dollaway in a guillotine on the way down. Dollaway escapes and they scramble back up. Jab by Dollaway stings Miller. Moments later a hard shot from Dollaway drops Miller, and he has to scramble just to show hes still in it as Dollaway pours the punches on. Miller survives the onslaught, though hes having a hard time getting Dollaway to detach from his back. Dollaway ties up an arm and takes Millers back, though Miller rolls and gets back to his feet before the horn. What an opening round.
Round 2:
Dollaway gets the jab working right away, popping Millers head back and avoiding his looping punches. Miller stings Dollaway again, and again Dollaway is doing the stanky leg. Miller tries to capitalize, but hes on shaky legs too. Theyre both slipping and sliding like theyre on skates. Dollaway recovers and gets a takedown, but Miller pops back up quickly. Dollaway keeps working for the takedown against the fence, and he eventually gets it. The crowd isnt happy with the way hes managed to slow down this fight, but he does better on the mat with Miller than on the feet so far. Final minute of the round now, and Dollaway is opening up with occasional elbows from the top. Miller tries to kick him off, but Dollaway is back on and stays there until the horn. Miller gets up urging the crowd to lend some support, which it does.
Round 3:
Again Dollaway snaps out that jab, and again Miller hits him with a looping counter punch that hurts him. And, in keeping with their pattern, Dollaway responds to Millers aggression with a takedown. The crowd doesnt like it, but it just might be a winning formula for Dollaway. Miller keeps trying to get to his feet, but ends up giving his back to Dollaway in the process. The crowd lets Dollaway hear it. Miller struggles to his feet, only to be put right back down. Less than two minutes left in the fight now. Dollaway postures up from Millers back and peppers him with hammerfists. Miller mocks the effort, but cant do too much about it. Miller rolls over and nearly gets caught in an arm triangle. Ten seconds left, and Miller extends his arms from the bottom in an exasperated plea. Theres the horn. Dollaway gets up to the sound of boos. Miller shakes his head and gives him a reluctant glove touch.
CB Dollaway def. Jason Miller via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-26, 29-28)

When it comes to getting my stuff done, I feel so happy. I feel accompleshed and my life is on the right track. Therefore, to get my stuff done, I should flow some rules or guides at work . For this reason, I'm addicted to productivity and creativity ( as an architect, my work requires both ). I read books and articles about productivity every day. I have gathered some tips that I have shared with my friends on Facebook everyday for 15 days. Here's the tips that I collect.
Tip 01: Start working early
Start working one hour earlier in the morning. If your jop starts at 8, you should be at your desk at 7. The secret is to beat the traffic and to work more productive with no distractions from others, especially in the open space offices.
Tip 02: Do difficult tasks first
Do and finish your most difficult task first, so take it off from your way. Getting annoyed things done first in the morning, give you the motivation to finish the rest.
Tip 03: Split your large task into smaller tasks
Tip 04: Prioritize your life
Prioritize your tasks. Start with the most important to less important. Do NOT waste your precious time on things that is nice to do, but not important to do.
Tip 05: Say NO
Try to say "No" sometimes. Saying NO to unwanted tasks form other people could save your precious time.
Tip 06: Unplug
DO NOT save your social media password in your browser. The 30 Seconds you are trying to log in is the time when you realize you are wasting your precious time. Use anything to unplug yourself from social media. We waste a lot of time everyday just checking Facebook.
Tip 07: Do Nothing
Include "Do Nothing" in you to do-list. Just enjoy your day. Sometimes you need time off. Take advantage of weekends. When you come back to work, will feel energize to get some stuff done.
Tip 08: Empty/Charge rule
Before sleeping, write down ( on paper, Smartphone, or tablet) everything in your mind, even things that don't have value meaning for you. In the morning, read your thoughts again. The secret is to empty your brain at night and to get enough sleep, and to recharge it in the morning.
Tip 09: Planning a head
Tip 10: Simplicity
Don't complicate your to-do tasks. Your work flow comes with simplicity.
Tip 11: White Noise
Tip 12: 10 min Silence
First thing to do in the morning, take 10min of silence and thinking before starting your day. The key is to think about your thinking.
Tip 13: Read a lot
Minimal, read 3 articles a day and one book a year. Data is everywhere. Get this data to become information. Use information to become experience. Eventually, you will turn to an experts.
Tip 14: Write your task at night
Write down your To-Do task at night before going to sleep. Let your subconscious works on your tasks all the night before the next day.

Stock Futures Barely Budge as Investors Watch G-20 Meeting
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Stock futures were little changed Friday as investors processed a better-than-expected Empire State manufacturing survey while awaiting more U.S. economic data and headlines from a weekend meeting of the G-20.
Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average were falling 8 points, or 3.39 points below fair value, at 13,942. Futures for the S&P 500 were down 0.5 point, or 0.53 point below fair value, at 1,518. Futures for the Nasdaq were up 1.75 points, or 0.12 point above fair value, at 2,769.
"I think people will just hold their positions" ahead of the long weekend, Keith Bliss, senior vice president of Cuttone, told TheStreet late Thursday. "We're not going to see much out of the options expirations or any kind of data we get
U.S. markets are closed Monday for Presidents Day.Bliss said late Thursday, as the S&P 500 tracked a five-year high, that he was "quite amazed" it was staying up there. "There's a lot of internal indicators inside the market that tell me the price action is broken and we should be pulling back but there's so much money plowing into the equity markets that people are chasing return and that's why we're up here," he said.
Major U.S. stock averages ended little changed Thursday amid a number of high-profile corporate deals and better-than-expected jobs data.
"U.S. data today is seen with a softer tone," said Paul Donovan, global economist at UBS. "Industrial production will be tempered by mining output, and the University of Michigan consumer sentiment has seemed to be more sensitive than other measures to the impact of higher taxes at the start of the year."
The New York Empire State manufacturing survey showed a reading of 10 for February, above expectations for a flat read and up from negative 7.8 in the prior month.
At 9:15 a.m., the Federal Reserve is expected by economists to report that industrial production rose 0.2% in January after increasing 0.3% in December. Capacity utilization is expected to have increased to 78.9% from 78.8%.
The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index is forecast to show a read of 73.5 versus a previous 73.8.
Finance ministers of the G-20 nations were meeting in Moscow Friday amid widespread concerns of rising risks of currency wars, with the Japanese yen's depreciation one of the areas of focus amid Japan's aggressive monetary policy.
In the U.S., sequestration talks in Washington continued Thursday, with Senate Democrats proposing a $110 billion combination of spending cuts and tax increases to avoid automatic spending cuts that kick in at the beginning of March. However, the Republicans objected to a rise in tax rates or other measures to generate more tax revenue.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (119 votes).
In short: Tough but enjoyable - second time at this race and i'll be back next year!In full: Perfect weather conditions. An early mist and slight breeze kept the worst of the sun's heat at bay early on. Running across the top of the downs before descending into the mist of the valley floor was one of the defining moments of this years race. Not for the faint hearted - the hills are tough! but the marshals and people manning the water stations are very enthusiastic. The last two mile drag back across the cliff top path are hard but the sprint down the zig-zag at the end is fun if there's a few of you finishing together. If you fancy this race remember that it is a cross country so take your own drink and any water station is a bonus. If you enjoyed this race and fancy something similar, but with a twist, try next years Sleepwalker Midnight Marathon. Date of review: October 21, 2007
In short: Not for the faint-hearted (although faint-hearted+dim is probably ok)In full: Any complaints about this one are entirely directed at myself - perhaps a race too far after the New Forest mara. I run around these hills a lot so I should have known what to expect. Doh.I thought this a well-organised, great value race in beautiful surroundings. It is, however, bl**dy hard. Felt worse after this one than after either of my maras.Back next year for round 2!Date of review: October 18, 2007
In short: Great race for those who love off road longer runs that do not require navigation skills.Date of review: October 17, 2007
In short: Very enjoyable, scenic run in the South Downs.In full: Great variety of scenery and I found some of the downhills almost as hard as the uphills. Found the final drag along the clifftop difficult and couldn't wait to se the zig-zag.Date of review: October 15, 2007
In short: A tough old race but don't let that put you off one of the friendliest off-roaders on the calendar In full: My third time of doing this and getting ever slower - scenic but testing course - well organised and very friendly event - good test of duration and endurance.Date of review: October 15, 2007
In short: Great scenery, great marshalls, great race.In full: As a first timer to the race it was hard but enjoyable. It felt very hot and I'm glad i carried my own drink aswell as the stations because the heat zapped me. It shouldn't be that hot in the middle of October! The marshalls were very friendly, special thanks for those in the cow fields and guy on his mountain bike.... Enjoyable day! Date of review: October 15, 2007
In short: Fantastic, has given me loads of confidence for the up coming New York marathon.Date of review: October 15, 2007
In short: Great tough race...already thinking about next years, it's that good.In full: Hard, hilly and a real treat. It just about has the lot: great course, real physical challenge, very friendly low key feel and outside of a fell race, just about the best value for money going. If you like this sort of thing but haven't done it yet, then do it. If you're not sure, then give it a go, you'll end up as a convert.Many thanks to everyone who helped put this on and to all those who took part; see you again next year - HLSDate of review: October 15, 2007
In short: Tough race, highly recommendedIn full: First time to do this one and I loved it. The scenery was amazing, easily made up for the crazy hills. Friendly marshals and friendly competitors. Date of review: October 15, 2007
In short: A beautiful course and the weather made it even better. The hills, as expected, were tough but made the course more interesting. Nice medal and wonderful marshals. All in all, a fab race. Date of review: October 15, 2007

I haven't been to a joint with shredded canadian bacon (as opposed to sliced) in a long time, but I always loved it. Has anyone here tried it and what brands/methods would you recommend. I think just using a fine cheese grater will get the job done. Anyone with some experience here?
Pepperoni is killer shreadded. Sir Pizza/Pizza king does this.
I am surprised no one here knows anything about the process of doing a shredded canadian bacon however. Oh well, I will just have to practice

Here's how RW members rated this race (201 votes).
In short: Excellent RaceIn full: Dread to think what it would have been like had Saturday not been a fine day.Excellent organisation, atmosphere, marshalling and unique course. Nice medal and a good challenge in the conditions.Only negatives are lack of support and the baggage was a bit of a shambles at the end.Date of review: November 17, 2010
In short: First half marathon, muddy, narrow and killer uphill at locks and end but overall greatDate of review: November 17, 2010
In short: Very scenic, flat course along canal tow pathIn full: Good organisation from Purple Patch - lots of information before hand and on the day it all went smoothly. Friendly and helpful marshalls, scenic route, and definite PB potential all made for a great race.Date of review: November 16, 2010
In short: Off road, point to point, flat, but care needed on the canal pathIn full: As this is a flat run there is plenty of personal best potential, but limited space on the canal tow-path means that you have to choose your overtaking points. The organisers put on coaches to take you from the finish line to the start line - which is a really nice touch and at £5 - a good price.My only complaint - there were no jelly babiesDate of review: November 15, 2010
In short: Tougher than it seems, suicidal overtaking manoeuvres and plenty of leg draining bridges In full: This was my first ever run and I enjoyed myself more than I thought I would. Am used to running this canal but in the other direction so was pleasantly surprised at how much nicer to look at this side was.Horrible start line crush completely messed up the first km and tight towpath proved difficult to over take for the first few miles. Constant speeding up and levelling off really pushed all the cobwebs out and the very real threat of slipping in mud and going head first into the canal soon pushed any brave overtaking out the window.Once it got going the mud was easier to avoid and it was obvious the lock bridges were taking their toll as I saw plenty of people crumble after the half way point!The marshals were very friendly and encouraging but the odd cyclist/dog walker going in the opposite direction was quite annoying yet unavoidable on a public path with limited room.The final push after the last bridge was horrendous in my opinion and totally took me by surprise sapping all the remaining energy from my legs. Overall I was happy with my time of 1 hour 57 minutes which was at least 15 minutes faster than I expected so the potential for PBs is higher than you'd think.Well done PurplePatch, excellent race, shame about the drizzle!Date of review: November 15, 2010
In short: Tougher then you think but enjoyableIn full: There was definitely mud and a lot of short hills over locks and bridges.The marshall at mile 11 who said no more hills to go lied big time because the drag at the end was certainly not flat!!Although reasonably flat I think the terrain makes it hard work. Definitely a great race as the surroundings are always changing and nice to do a route that isn't laps.The only critism I have is that my entire warm up consisted of queuing for the loo (and stretching) followed by queuing for baggage drop off (while changing).Would also be nice to have some squash as well as water at the end as desperately needed sugar!Date of review: November 15, 2010
In short: Pretty route, quite fast and good funIn full: Locks, bridges, narrowboats. Woodsmoke, swans, fishermen. Puddles, mist and mud. A bottleneck start stretched into a pretty, uncrowded and narrow canal-side route. Slight up and down over bridges & locks made it a little harder. Testy little hill at the end.Overall a very nice race. Date of review: November 15, 2010
In short: Not as muddy as some make outIn full: Judging from some of the previous reviews I was expecting conditions reminiscent of the Somme, but it really wasn't that bad. It had rained a bit in the days leading up to the race, so there were a few puddles and muddy sections, but this was no cross country shoe sucker.In fact I'd say the relatively flat course (barring the half mile hill at the finish) is quite quick considering, and though it's not tarmac has reasonable PB potential. You just need to get ahead of the main group in the initial lap round the park to avoid getting hemmed in. I beat my previous time (and came 6th, to my surprise).Slight confusion with the coaches, they were not at the car park as instructed but a mile down the road. There was an official somewhere letting people know, but he wasn't there when I was trying to figure it out. Otherwise, organisation was pretty good.Marshalls along the route were very friendly and encouraging, so special thanks go to them.Date of review: November 15, 2010
In short: Mud, Mud glorious Mud!!In full: I have not been this muddy in a long time!!. Really enjoyed the relaxing race along the canal. The first few kilometres were rather crowded due to the mass of runners on the tow path and mud. this really messed up my average, but I would still do this run again as it was thoroughly enjoyable and scenic. Look forward to next year and hope it rains a lot less the days leading up to it!!.Date of review: November 14, 2010
In short: cold, wet and muddy, but still fun! short uphills through the locks added up over time, and muddy going sapped the thighs, but scenic run along the canalDate of review: November 14, 2010

As we mentioned last week, Proenza Schouler tends to put its most directional accessories on the runway instead of the bags and leather goods that actually fly off of store shelves. That's the case for most designers, but Proenza is particularly notable because there's such a wide gulf between the runway bags and the rest of the line; you needn't look further than Proenza Schouler Spring 2013 for proof.
In addition to the new Proenza Schouler Record Bag, the collection's runway accessories included several very interesting patchwork purses with futuristic pieced hardware. In fact, "patchwork" hardly seems appropriate for a look that was a lot less hippie-dippy and a lot more postmodern than the term usually implies. Will those bags be a retail success? Likely not, but the Record Bags might do well, and you can expect to see notes of all these looks on PS1s and PS11s (and PS13s, if we ever get to see them) to come. Check out the full collection after the jump.

Soulfly -- Salsbury Beach, MA -- April 28th, 2012
This show was at the Blue Ocean Music Hall. Originally it was supposed to be up the road at Wally's Pub but the promoter decided for some reason to switch the shows around and it was possibly the biggest mistake ever.
I drove down from Maine because I missed the show Thursday in Portland because of work. I rode solo and so I stopped at the mall and looked at some CDs and realized how expensive FYE is =/. I grabbed some Taco Bell for lunch and continued my journey towards the show. Doors were supposed to open at 5 but apparently that got changed and they wern't opening til 6 so I wandered around the beach area and played some pinball and some other arcade games down at one of the arcades. Wish I had looked a bit more because I found an arcade after I had spend all my quarters that had WWF Wrestlefest!. Next time I will play it fo sho. So after killing about 50 minutes I walk back over to the venue and out of the nice fancy restaurant this place is attached to comes Max Cavalera with food(what a shock). He is shorter then me and quite round. I go and sit down outside the venue listening to some kids play hacky sack while Hardcore dancing and screaming lyrics from some deathcore band or something. It was mildly entertaining to laugh at. Mark Rizzo was out and about taking pics with people and Tony Campos wanted nothing to do with it but got sucked in and looked quite unhappy haha.
They finally open the doors at 6 and a few things when I walked in...Holy shit this place was nice! It was a big room with a fantastic stage and 2 bars. Second thing was that they had about 1000 pieces of paper on the walls saying No Moshing. I read it and laughed knowing that this show was not gonna follow those rules by the end of the night.
The first band up was a local band called Quick! Before The Outbreak! They were your typical modern Deathcore band with breakdowns and chug chug guitars. pretty boring and watching kids trying not to mosh was the highlight of it. I have no idea what they played but they were pretty boring.
The next band was Six Feet Silence another local band. I didn't think it was possible to mix the sound of Slipknot with the rapping of vanilla Ice and trying to be Limp Bizkit but dear god they did it and it was fucking terrible. They were easily the worst band I have ever heard live. He would rap this terrible Vanilla Ice style then start doing Cory Taylor growls while rapping. It was just fucking bad. They looked like they were straight out of the whitest part of the suburbs or something.
After that abomination was over Manifest was up. I talked to someone earlier in the day who said they were good. they wern't bad but they played Metalcore that I just wasn't digging. It wasn't bad but it was kinda generic and bland sounding with nothing that really stood out except a cover of A New Level by Pantera that was decent. They were def better then the last couple bands that played. During the set someone tried to start a pit and 4 security guards swarmed him and dragged his ass out. that's when I knew they wern't gonna fuck around tonight.
5/10 mostly for the cover of Pantera
After them I wandered and looked at merch for a few minutes before it went on sale and talked to a midget about some of the bands that are playing. I ended up picking up the Soulfly Ashes to Ashes Dust to Dust shirt. It was $30 fucking bucks but I said screw it I wanna shirt. I then went back over and took a position right in the middle of the stage.
Wykkyd Wytch had started their set and they are some female fronted black metal band from everywhere they said. She has some demonic sounding vocals and they were actually decent. The drummer is a beast and they were easily the heaviest band of the night. I got their setlist so I will put a pic of that up when I get it uploaded for ya'lls.
Up next was Lody Kong and I personally actually really enjoyed them. They were young angsty sounding crossover kinda deal. The singer tried to set his guitar on fire with a lighter during one song and they were doing zombie walks and falling and all sorts of other crazy stuff throughout the set. At the end the lead guitarist/singer decided to climb on the drumkit and rip it appart. It was a sight to behold. I ended up getting a pick from him and their setlist as well. Really interesting stuff.
After them was Incite and they blew me away. they played what I call Metallica Metalcore. With all the thrashy guitars and drums but those metalcore breakdowns and vocals. They were awesome and go the crowd moving with some headbanging and clapping and all that good stuff. I would def check them out again if I get a chance. like the other 2 bands I ended up getting their setlist so I will put that up when I upload pics.
After they finished they started gearing up for Soulfly. The crowd started getting rowdy and security was about to have their hands full with a room full of drunk metalheads who havn't had a chance to release any aggression yet. All that alcohol was fuel for the fire. I ended up talking with a dad and his 11 year old son who were next to me in the front. It was the kids first metal show and he was pumped to be there. After what happened with him I would have been pumped too! So the lights go out and the intro from Enslaved kicks and and BOOM right into World Scum. It sounded kinda off like they had slowed it down a bit live but it was still awesome and Campos does a great job doing Travis's parts live. They went right into Refuse/Resist and the crowd started a small pit which got broken up. after that Max gave the 11 year old the first pick of the night which was awesome! They continued blistering through their performance with ferocity and power. Then they hit the drums part where they all bring out drums and play. Max proceeds to grab the 11 year old and pull him on stage to play the drum with him! He had to help the kid keep rythym but that kid looked thrilled! Max gave him one of the sticks after and helped him back down to the floor. This is where shit really hits the wall people.
So they go and bust into the chorus of Walk and that makes people move. Right from there they go into Troops of Doom. people move some more. Finally just before they hit Roots Bloody Roots they bust out Angel of Death and the crowd starts going crazy then they go into Roots Bloody Roots and holy shit the entire floor turns into a fucking pit. Max had the biggest grin on his face knowing that he just turn the place into chaos. I turn and see this security guard with one hand on his his the other rubbing his bald head trying to figure out how he is gonna stop this fucking thing. It was awesome! Then they go and start JUMPDAFUKUP! That's where fuckery happens apparently the guy who owns this place decides well "fuck you Soulfly" and cuts the mics and turns the lights on. Guy apparently didn't think to turn the instruments off too because Max and co say fuck it and start playing Angel of Death again. This dude and I are in the front screaming the words while the fucking pit is raging before everything gets cut. Their drummer Dave was pissed. He ended up on stage throwing sticks and tell the venue they fucking suck
10/10 for fucking going with the flow and raging the fuck out even with stupid rules.
Soulfly setlist(incomplete and out of order)
World Scum
Back to the Primitive
Drum solo
American Steel
Plato O Plomo
Troops of Doom
Angel of Death > Roots Bloody Roots
A minute of Jumpdafuckup > Angel of Death
I bailed fairly quickly after it ended and as I was leaving the owner was outside bragging how no one should fuck with him because he is the man and can do shit like that. Bro we brought you business and money maybe you shouldn't host metal shows if you can't handle some people having a good time. He also called the cops to because there were a couple arriving as I was leaving.
Overall it was a fantastic night even with the bs of getting shutdown it was the last song anyways from what I know of so it didn't break my balls at all because I had a great time.
WTF??!?! Angel of Death.
How did Max sound when belching out the lyrics to "Angel of Death"???
8/31 - Sleep
11/10 - Judas Priest

Although it sounds like t his venue was total BS... what a kick ass night!
I still have never gotten the chance to see Soulfly. They WERE here earlier this month, I think it was, but tickets were $50, and they were with 5FDP... NO THANKS. Hopefully soon
Dalla Nebbia
Funeral Age
He sounded good he didn't do to much only the first few lines but he hit the AHHHHHH as only Max would haha.
A quick search lead me to this. The video of the boy playing drums with Max.
Max should have played Black flags cover of Six pack to truly end the show, seeing how they would play angel of death, i can just see the crowed going all out for six pack, especially with the story you posted about the shitty venue management.
8/31 - Sleep
11/10 - Judas Priest

I like that he's in there. He's aggressive and already doing more than Walden. I think his pressure on the previous plays (and on this play) in fact was a big reason for the Packers' pick there. Nice.
Agreed I think he is going to hold up better in run defense too… Looks like he's keeping contain
I saw a play where he shed a block and made a tackle.
The staff should show Hawk the tape of the shed, so Hawk would realize it is indeed possible to shed a block….
I was happy to see So'oto in there too. He was more impressive when opposite Matthews though and didn't do much at the end of the game.
I just keep waiting for the "D" to wake up and show something. Hope some light switches go on real soon.

Hagi SSO 18 The Eiichi Commission! "Kohiku"
Kohiku is a general term referring to the glazing techniques. In this case, the glaze when applied was "white." It then transforms to this Loquat with the noticable grayish greens. This is traditional Hagi method, but is not easy to master. These are the first pieces created by Shibuya Eiichi utilizing this technique. I would expect to see more of this in the future. I have seen this technique used by other TeaChat fave artisans from Choun Kiln including Noutomi Susumu.
The clay used is super Oni-Hagi (very rough sand clay) that will surely provide a very tactile drinking experience!
This Commission is a stepping stone, a progression, for Eiichi, as it was intended to be, for a young artisan to try something new. Despite his relative youth (grandson of mentor Shibuya Deishi), Eiichi has earned awards and much recognition already. Although by Japanese standards he still has much to learn as an artisan potter before he is honored as a Master and a National Treasure. But it is very exciting nevertheless to be involved with this obviously very talented (and already very popular) artisan at this stage in his development! I only hope we continue to have access to his works as his popularity continues to increase in Japan! (I already have 3 future Hagi SO projects in my head for Eiichi)
In the creation of this "Commission," Eiichi was given very minimal directions except to do something new and different, and something suitable for tea. To give an artisan this free reign is a sign of respect and at the same time encouragement. From the beginning, Eiichi embraced this project humbly, but at the same time I sensed his excitement. He truly appreciated the encouragement and challenge we offered.
