text:
Regarding Law 11 (Offside), the wording of the Interpretation of the Laws of the Game and Guidelines has been amended to clarify the situation where a defending player leaves the field of play placing an attacking player in an offside position.
The new wording reads as follows: "Any defending player leaving the field of play for any reason without the referee's permission shall be considered to be on his goal line or touchline for the purposes of offside until the next stoppage of play."
Another item discussed at today's meeting relates to kicks from the penalty mark. The procedure has been clarified regarding the players participating in kicks from the penalty mark if one team has a greater number of players than their opponent at the end of the match. In such a situation, the Laws of the Game now state that this team must reduce their numbers to equate with that of their opponent. In order to clarify further the process, the following wording has been added: "Any player so excluded may not participate in kicks from the penalty mark."

Dearborn, MI | Distinguished Ag Alumni: 1996
For David Doster, quality truly is job one and two and three... As an employee of Ford Motor Company since 1978 he is currently chief engineer of automotive components division in Dearborn, Michigan, having held more than 10 different positions and his rising career at Ford. After a summer internship, he began with the company as a print product planning analyst for agricultural tractors at the Ford tractor operations plant in Troy, Michigan. His early years with Ford were spent as a product engineer, manufacturing process engineer, and Senior advanced manufacturing engineer. After earning his Masters of business administration degree from University of Michigan in 1983, David's role expanded.

Ten o'clock.� The neighborhood's quiet has finally been broken by the hum of lawnmowers somewhere down the street.� For the last two hours, I've enjoyed quiet.� Throwing open the back door and looking out to my garden of basil and rosemary and lemon thyme with some geraniums woven in for color.� I indulged myself in the rare morning quiet, listening leaves clicking softly against one another in the wind, a pair of cardinals calling to each other.� I lost myself for an hour in a book, a a pot of strong coffee, a toasted English muffin slathered with butter and raspberry jam, and glances at an American flag flickering its red stripes in the spaces between leafy branches.� The computer and piles of work sat accusingly on the desk, jealous that I hadn't yet paid them attention.
Now, I've snapped to back to reality, vacation over, the coffee pot practically drained, the cardinals flapping furiously away. The lawnmowers buzz like a swarm of crazed bees as more landscapers unload equipment around the neighborhood.� The refrigerator starts depositing ice cubes furiously into its bin.� I'll turn on sports radio full blast to my favorite broadcaster, as long as he's talking baseball.� Pick up the kitchen.� When the noise stops, I'll move the computer outdoors and try to outrun the sun.
Maybe later, I'll put together a berry crisp with my cache from the farmers' markets: they're just about to go too soft to put on my Cheerios.
ANY BERRY CRISP������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� Makes about 6 servings
�5 to 6 cups mixed berries, any kind
1/3 cup sugar

1 cup AP flour

1 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces
� cup rolled oats
1/3 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, or any combination)
Whipped cream for serving
Heat oven to 350F.� Butter an 8-inch square baking dish. Toss together berries, sugar, and lemon zest in a large bowl. Toss together flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in another bowl.� Cut in the butter with this flour mixture until large crumbs form.� Mix in oats and nuts. Transfer berry mixture into baking dish.� Cover with flour mixture. Bake for 35 minutes, until top is golden and crisp, juices are bubbling.� Cool for 10 minutes before serving plain, topped with whipped cream or with vanilla ice cream.

I have been teaching for 27 years and have had this product for almost as long! It is sturdy, functional, and easily heard throughout my room. I recently dropped it (for about the 4th time) and have to replace it. I'm happy I am able to purchase the exact same one!

I love this timer. It can do it all--time forward or countdown. I have owned about 4 of these and end up giving them away to others. So, here I am, ordering another.
Great Timer
By The flexible educator.
from Bay Area, CA
About Me Education Oriented, Parent Of Two Or More Children, Working Parent
As a special education teacher I use this timer for many reasons. I especially like that it is a clock and a counter and a timer. All with the flip of a switch --- AND -- it keeps doing the other thing while the new thing is happening!My only complaint is that there is no volume control on the timer. It is very loud. This reduced my 5-star rating to a 4-star rating.My students really like using it when they time themselves -- both up and down. (To time how long something takes and to time how much can get done in a time-frame.) I keep it on my desk for a handy clock.I have recommended this product to many other educators and parents.

We have several of these in our special ed. room. They are very durable with long lasting battery life. They are used MANY times a day and moved about by several staff members. If you need a loud timer you can hear from across the room, this is for you.
Love it!

I first used this product while teaching summer school. The teachers and I fell in love with this digital timer and now we're planning on ordering one for every teacher on our campus!
Neat teacher resource!
By llinich
from Lockport, IL
As secretary of our school I use this digital timer often to record fire and emergency drill times, remind me that I need to do something, etc. Three of our classroom teachers have borrowed it, so I will be ordering one for each of them. They use it on timed test, to keep the class on task, etc. It's a wonderfully compact item that is a multi-tasker--it counts up (stopwatch function), counts down (timer) and is a digital clock close at hand to which to refer. Great item!

Is social justice the same as socialism?
Lately there have been accusations that a church with a social justice mission is one that supports socialism.
Conservative TV personality Glenn Beck told Christians, "I beg you, look for the words 'social justice' or 'economic justice' on your church website. If you find it, run as fast as you can. Social justice and economic justice, they are code words. . . . If you have a priest that is pushing social justice, go find another parish. Go alert your bishop."
Unfortunately, statements such as this have left even Catholics, who enjoy a rich social justice tradition, confused.
Socialism is defined as economic or political theories that advocate collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods. The threat perceived by socialism is that it threatens the identity of the individual because it merges the masses into one common goal or voice.
Social justice isn't an economic or political theory, but an outlook that seeks to strengthen the identity of the individual because it sees that human dignity derives its meaning from being made in God's image (Gen. 1:26). In God's image, no one is worth more than another. All are deserving of life and whatever is needed to adequately sustain it.
The church's mission is derived from the words and actions of Jesus. Jesus reached out to those living on the margins of society because they had as much value in God's eyes as those living in the center with their power and comfort. Pope Benedict XVI proclaimed in Caritas in Veritate, "If we love others with charity then first of all we are just towards them. . . . Justice is the primary way of charity."
Social justice means living in right relationship. We must live justly not only with God, but with our neighbor and all of humanity. How we treat the least among us becomes a measure of how well we honor our relationship with God. By honoring the least, we are challenged to look at how they are denied the chance to sustain their own life. If our actions, our consumption, or our materialism make it difficult for others to simply live, then we are not loving our neighbors as much as we love ourselves.
Therefore, while socialism is seen as a threat to individual identity, social justice is a call to honor the life and dignity of each individual, especially the least among us. The fear of socialism begins with a fear of losing one's identity and material wealth, as well as the ability to experience economic upward mobility. The mission of social justice begins with honoring the identity of each human and realizing the mobility of one depends upon the mobility of all.
Within the mission of the church, each member has a voice to add and a value and worth as an individual. But we must never forget that we are all one body and no one part is more deserving of dignity and life than any other.

great look ren! (per usual ;)) now i have to pull out my bottom lashes and play. i don't know what's wrong with me. i go and buy this stuff and then just hoard it and never use it.. i guess because most of the time, i'm not encouraged to be creative, but to see how i can sneak colorful makeup into the conservative world. so i'm usu not breaking out the good stuff.... even my glycerin is just sitting.. no foiling shadows or anything! =p

Kaniuk, Yoram
Kaniuk, Yoram 1930?–
Kaniuk is an Israeli novelist who writes in Hebrew. His complex narratives examine the changes wrought in Jewish consciousness by historical and political realities.
Herbert Kupferberg
"The Acrophile" is a story touched by hallucination and abounding in symbols. One does not always comprehend [the protagonist] Daani's motivations, follow his thought convolutions, or sympathize with his self-torment. But one respects his search for sanity in an unbalanced universe, and one reads his story suspense fully to its unexpectedly wry climax.
Even if the world Mr. Kaniuk depicts is more than slightly out of joint, it is populated by some strangely appealing beings…. [They] are fleeting characters, half real, half seen through Daani's strange imagination, yet all weave in and out of the story as human beings whose story is at once lifelike and fanciful….
This is a curious sort of book, part novel, part parable, part—one suspects—autobiography. It deals with people who are rootless, unhappy and lonely. Since its events are viewed through the eyes of one who is bedeviled by doubt and remorse, and has an impossible ambition to satisfy, it doesn't pretend to see life whole and see it plain. But, with sensitivity of insight and simplicity of language, it creates its own picture of the strange twists of soul and mind that bring human beings together, and set them apart.
Herbert Kupferberg, "Symbolic, Wry Tale of Israel," in New York Herald Tribune (© I.H.T. Corporation; reprinted by permission), February 26, 1961, p. 34.
Lionel Abel
["The Acrophile" is] a personal fantasy that is touching, diverting, comical, even wise, and, to this reader at least, irresistible.
The hero of "The Acrophile" tells his story in snatches of memory; in monologues that are interrupted by other characters (who often borrow his rhetoric and continue his fantasy); in absurd and sometimes unbelievable encounters with strangers; in dreams, proverbs, meditations, jests. There is a total disregard for normal narrative order in this book and the beginning of the story is much closer to the end than is the middle. Kaniuk has made a game of what is silly in serious novels and thus found a form for his own troubled probing into the larger question: how can what was once the seriousness of life seem to be so silly? And what are you to do when you have found out that it is? How do you get married, go to your mother-in-law's funeral, fight properly with your wife, pursue a scholarly project, rise to a high academic post, or even eat a meal in a Lebanese restaurant? How are any of these far from abnormal activities possible to a person who has not unlearned to recognize nonsense when he comes across it? Kaniuk's hero has not unlearned, and never will unlearn, that nonsense is nonsense no matter how useful it may be not to regard it so. Now I believe there are a great many young people all over the world who are in this very difficulty, and I think that Kaniuk's hero speaks for them….
(The entire section is 506 words.)
Samuel I. Bellman
Yoram Kaniuk is a youngish Israeli novelist of enormous talent, both as an artificer of plot and as a virtuoso of language. He is an existentialist who writes somewhat in the manner of Camus, although his work shows a sophisticated awareness of many other writers and their special literary modes. On the basis of his first novel, The Acrophile … and to a lesser extent the new one, Himmo, one might argue that Kaniuk could some day—if he stays on the job—join the ranks of important world authors.
The Acrophile was a fantastically good story with all the verve, inventiveness, and assured mastery of idiom one expects from such writers as Amado, Borges, Queneau, Böll, and perhaps Nabokov. Even in translation the book showed literary craftsmanship on every page.
Kaniuk's existentialism, which in The Acrophile was of a wild, zany, carnival-of-the-emotions sort, is in Himmo a somber conscience-twisting that demands impossible action under the most adverse conditions. And, as with the earlier novel, the English-speaking reader can't help wondering whether there are subliminal tones in the original Hebrew that the best translation could never pick up.
Himmo might have been subtitled "The Nurse's Dilemma." During the Arab siege of Jerusalem in the winter of 1948 an Israeli girl named Hamotal [worked as a nurse in a hospital]…. [Of her patients, the] most seriously hurt is Himmo Farrah, not yet nineteen, who was once the acknowledged "king of Jerusalem," at least with the ladies. Now blind and maimed, he calls desperately for someone to shoot him. Only his mouth has been left unmarred, and it is beautiful to Hamotal….
Hamotal dedicates herself exclusively to Himmo and seldom leaves his side…. But Himmo's real problem is beyond the reach of Hamotal's tender loving care. He wants to die….
The painful resolution, which is not very satisfactory, is probably intended to leave the reader with a psychological puzzle he can keep turning over in his mind.
Samuel I. Bellman, "Macabre Union," in Saturday Review (copyright © 1969 by Saturday Review; all rights reserved; reprinted by permission), Vol. LII, No. 7, February 15, 1969, p. 35.
D.A.N. Jones
Adam Resurrected concerns a deranged patient in an Israeli hospital: he was a famous clown in pre-war Germany and, when he was arrested by the Nazis, he was made to entertain fellow Jews, including members of his own family, on their way to the gas chambers; he was also made to share a food bowl with a dog belonging to the commandant of the concentration camp. This information is shovelled onto the page in a raving New York style (translated from the Hebrew) together with sick jokes and morbid fantasies. Reading Adam Resurrected was a chore…. [Kaniuk's earlier novel] The Acrophile dealt poetically with race-political guilt, isolation from the world and escape into clownishness. Adam Resurrected is a reworking of the same themes, but so smothered with rant and repulsive detail that the governing concepts are not seen and the connections not made.
D.A.N. Jones, "Bags" (© British Broadcasting Corp. 1972; reprinted by permission of D.A.N. Jones), in The Listener, Vol. 87, No. 2238, February 17, 1972, p. 221.∗
Anatole Broyard
Yoram Kaniuk seems to think that to give in to a manic impulse is the same thing as having a burst of creative energy. The good things in "Rockinghorse" are a reward for patience. If the ideal fiction reader were to be imagined as the kind of person who likes to go for long walks in the rain, then "Rockinghorse" might be described as a hail storm.
Here's a sample of Yoram Kaniuk's style: … "We found a girl's exercise book. On the ground. In the yard of the Freund Hospital. Worms had gnawed the exercise book. It was old and yellow. Hidden pimples of puberty between the words. We leaf through it."
On the surface, it sounds like Louis Ferdinand Céline's "emotive subway," an intense sputtering broken by clusters of three dots; but usually, in Kaniuk's case, there is no ostensible reason for it. Céline often wrote, and felt, like steam escaping from a pot, and his style was perfectly adapted to this feeling. It is difficult to see the justification for Kaniuk's broken phrases, unless we assume that he is ashamed of them….
In "Rockinghorse," the style is the mode, or à la mode, literary fashion owing more to the stand-up or Borscht Belt comic than to literary necessity.
And it is too bad, because, when the occasion is right, Kaniuk's manic energy is infectious and appealing. He's all over the reader with his story, embracing him like a long-lost friend, squeezing, exclaiming. Sussetz, his hero, is an unsuccessful Israeli painter living in America…. Sussetz takes refuge in the delight … of defeat.
Like a true modern artist, Sussetz decides to fashion a triumph out of his defeat, "to succeed in the story of his failure." He goes to Israel to make a film of his birth and of his ailing father's death….
The film of Sussetz's birth and his father's death is pure Yiddish theater, a rich concoction of schmalz and profundity…. It is a classical quest and "Rockinghorse" sometimes reads as if the author were going to bring it off. If he weren't such a nudnick, he might have.
Anatole Broyard, "Some Good Moments," in The New York Times Book Review (© 1977 by The New York Times Company; reprinted by permission), November 20, 1977, p. 14.
Thomas R. Edwards
Adam Resurrected is a moving and highly original novel. Adam Stein was spared from the Holocaust because his death-camp commandant recognized him as a famous circus clown and kept him alive to entertain the other victims—including Adam's wife and daughter—who were on their way to destruction…. The sign of his degredation is his ineradicable memory of playing dog to amuse Commandant Klein….
Adam Resurrected is filled with the tensions between the native-born pioneers who created Israel and the immigrant survivors who came to it for refuge. Though [Adam,] who becomes a dog and destroys his family, finally regains sanity through his love for Uriel, the dog-child he finds in the...
(The entire section is 806 words.)
George Klin
Yoram Kaniuk prefaces his novel Rockinghorse with a quote from Jorge Luis Borges: "Writing is but a guided dream." It is an exact description of a book that reads like the notes of an endless nightmare. The dialogue is terribly intent and cryptic. Intellectuals gravely intone philosophical nonsense. Trivial objects have transcendental meanings. Macabre figures behave eerily. Rockinghorse is a long challenge to logic, psychology and clarity, an outpouring of riddles and non sequiturs.
But from a distance, like a pointillist painting, the novel coalesces into a tangible reality. With absurdist imagery it brings existential despair to a disquieting life. Learning is ignored as a solitary...

["The Story of Aunt Shlomzion the Great" is about a woman who turns her will] loose on family and community in explosions of rage and imprecation. She spends a lifetime terrorizing those closest to her and manipulating their lives….
Shlomzion's story is told by her nephew, Aminadav…. Aminadav is sufficiently removed from Shlomzion to retain something of his own identity but close enough to have grown up under her spell; his telling of her story is an attempt to rediscover his own self. In fact, he seems like a man wrestling with an obsession: the story churns over and over the events and motifs of Shlomzion's life, returning incessantly to crucial episodes and significant details. This procedure...

Gila Ramras-Rauch
Yoram Kaniuk is one of the most lucid and imaginative—and least pedestrian—of Israeli novelists writing today. His prose is fluid, irridescent and charged with a soaring power. His writing has the quality of tale and fable. The element of the fantastic courts reality and enhances it.
The magic which fills his fiction is manifested in this novel, as in his earlier book, Rockinghorse. It is the magic of the early Tel Aviv and its fading beauty…. In both these books there is a fabric of legend and reality, memory and fantasy woven around the city built on golden dunes. Today very little is left of the former grandeur (real or imitated). Like everyone else who has had a taste of those days,...

Jascha Kessler
[Kaniuk] set himself a truly ambitious task [in Adam Resurrected]: to grasp what happened, not by entering the fire, which is impossible, but by sifting the ash. The results are curious, and startling. First, there is the inevitable shock and upset to one's emotions that the material causes, partly because each of us, I suspect, has managed to arrange a delicate equilibrium private to ourselves about these matters. Then, in pondering the book one begins to see what Kaniuk has it in mind to say to us about the unsayable. Briefly put, I should characterize Adam Resurrected as an inverted jeremiad, a negative book of prophecy, a demonic discussion of the fate of the Jew in which the writer attempts to...

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (92 votes).
In short: A good local race...In full: I was pleased with the first Devizes 10k. It was a well-balanced course with even ups and downs and was well marshalled. Enjoyed the weather - after all a nice drop of rain and wind makes it a bit more of a challenge doesn't it? Managed to shave a minute off my pb too - although I do tend to run a lot of hilly 10k's! Thanks for the banana at the end. Overall a good value race - well done devizes!!Date of review: March 26, 2007
In short: The weather couldn't spoil this well-organised hilly raceDate of review: March 9, 2007
In short: Terrific eventIn full: Yeah. Enjoyed this one. Despite the weather and the hill I knocked a minute off my PB.So who agrees the route was undulating then? I reckon it was undulating. Bar the dirty great hill near the beginning! Will be back next yearDate of review: March 5, 2007
In short: A few long hills but not too challengingIn full: Organisation at the start line could have been better. We had to walk over the line before we turned round ready to race. Some people were still walking through the crowds to the back when the horn went. Was the first time the event had run though (I think) so can forgive them for this.Date of review: March 5, 2007
In short: Can't fault itIn full: Not much to add that hasn't been said really...Excellent organisation (especially for a first time race), a challenging but fun course and good facilities. Hills were testing, but the downs seemed to compensate for the ups!Once again, the standard of care and attention to detail at these small regional races puts most of the bigger ones to shame (that's aimed at you, Cardiff marathon).Date of review: March 5, 2007
In short: nice fast results service. for all races,don't bother with a medal, a free tea and cake would be much better.Date of review: March 5, 2007
In short: Excellent organisation, fabulous atmosphere, great marshalling, unfortunately nobody could do anything about the terrible weather! Still a great race even with the weather and hideous hill!Date of review: March 5, 2007
In short: Brilliant time, only hounded by the awful weatherDate of review: March 5, 2007
In short: What can I say that hasn't been said, great race, fantastic Marshalls, well organised. Well done Devizes RC, I'll be back next year!!!Date of review: March 5, 2007
In short: Good fun, even with the hillDate of review: March 5, 2007

Cincinnati Reds for game 2 (Cingrani start) for 7/23
LA Angels for 7/24 tomorrow
Pittsburgh Pirates to close out the Phase on Friday, 7/26
I'll keep checking to see if I need to send in a whole slate of picks for the last day but knowing my luck, that won't be necessary.
Can I get a ruling on my Cinci pick. I specified the Cingrani start which ESPN had down as game 2 but which apparently is now game 1.

Climate change will test not only the resiliency of ecosystems but also the adaptability of cities, villages, and societies.Europe, the Mediterranean basin, the Alps, and the far north. Europe will have to adapt to the diminishing Alpine glaciers that now provide 40 percent of its fresh water. Africa, the western U.S., and Australia will have to adapt to intense droughts. Communities in the Arctic will have to adapt to melting ice and permafrost. If the Himalayan region loses its glaciers and monsoon patterns change, 40 percent of the world's population will likely face severe shortages of water for drinking and agriculture.
By 2030, some 60 percent of the world's population will live in flood-prone coastal areas.underway to restore lost mangroves to keep storm surges from flooding agricultural land and human settlements, and to keep delta land from washing away. At the same time, Bangladesh is trying to restore its upland forests to prevent downstream erosion. Islands, too, will hope to adapt to rising seas by creating or restoring natural buffer zones.
Early adaptation studies have been aimed at making people and places resilient to a possible range of changes.normal evolutionary standards — are very short time spans. They may follow expected adaptive pathways: Lowland species may move to higher elevations or migrate north, as some bird and plant species already are doing. In many places, however, migration routes are blocked by development or deforestation. Current nature reserve boundaries may no longer protect species forced by climate change to migrate. And while older trees that find themselves in an altered climate may survive, their seedlings may have a far narrower range of conditions under which they can thrive and thus be unable to grow in a warmer environment.

After his victory at MIMS, Paul Newsome and his Swim Smooth business partner Adam Young embarked on a cross-continental road trip to experience America via swimming.
Along the way, they stopped in Boulder, Colorado and met up with 6-time Ironman world champion Dave Scott. Paul did an interesting video interview with Dave on the topic of open-water swimming technique. It's worth your time to watch all 7 minutes, 46 seconds of this video. Here's the money quote from Dave:
"I'm not concerned about distance per stroke. I like an effective front-end of the stroke, on the catch."

Agree very much with Chris here. What I would like from you Lazarus are not bitter rantings about being some kind of misunderstood/neglected genius or opinions about Maccas capabilities as a lyricist using Driving Rain and Mumbo as examples. Since I have been reading and discussing these things with you for many years I know that you are capable of more. That doesn t mean we have to agree but there must be some kind of honesty in the discussion. Maybe you just have had some bad days because I don t wanna think that you actually lost it and have become some kind of troll that only can repeat the same stuff over and over just to create some mayhem at the board. If that is the case it s sad. The "#old" Lazarus could say things like "the red rose speedway" meddle is better than Abbey road. I still don t agree but it made me listen to the speedwat meddle in a different way -that s the benefit of a forum like this.
Regarding lyrics -well Paul aint no Bob Dylan but he has a way with words that most of the times works well within a song. And rockn roll/popmusic doesn t neccesarily have to contain deep meanings or subtle messages-as long there is a beat and a good melody

Are you planning to attend college in the fall of 2014? Need help with your financial aid? San Juan College, in conjunction with the FAFSA Free-for-All program, will host a series of free financial aid workshops, February, March, April and May to help make the process easier. Each of the workshops will be held at the San Juan College main campus, 4601 College Boulevard in Farmington.
Participants will review financial aid procedures and complete a 2014-15 Financial Aid application during the workshop. Those attending are asked to bring their 2013 federal tax information, which is important to fully complete the application.
"While current college students are encouraged to attend, the workshop series is especially beneficial for first-time college students, as well as their parents," says Mindi Schrum, interim director of SJC Financial Aid. "The workshop series is a great opportunity to get one-on-one help with your FAFSA application, and learn more about financial aid opportunities, including scholarships."
Students who complete one of the FAFSA workshops in February will be entered into a drawing to win a $500 scholarship, provided by FAFSA Free-for-All program.
Dates, times and locations for the Financial Aid workshops include:
Registration is required, and the workshops are free. Space is limited, so register early. To register, or for further information, contact Angie Abeyta at 505-566-3564, send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com, or stop by the San Juan College Financial Aid office, located at the Farmington campus in the Educational Services Center (clock tower building).

Brief SummaryRead full entry
The Noctilionidae family of bats, commonly known as bulldog bats or fisherman bats, are represented by two species, the greater and the lesser bulldog bats.[1] They are found near water, from Mexico to Argentina. The naked bulldog bat Cheiromeles torquatus does not belong to this family, but to the family Molossidae, the free-tailed bats.
The bulldog bats have orange to brown fur, and range in head-body length from 7 to 14 cm. They have relatively long legs and large feet, exceptionally so in the case of the greater bulldog bat. Unusual among bats, they have cheek-pouches for storing food, which give them their bulldog-like appearance. Both species are insectivorous, although the greater bulldog bat also eats small fish, using its echolocation to pinpoint the ripples they make on the surfaces of water.[2]
The greater bulldog bat trawls the water with its long, curved talons approximately 2–3 cm below the surface. It makes sweeps of between 30 cm and 3 m before ascending and turning to make a return sweep. In a single night, the bat may catch 20-30 small fish in this way.[3]

With a free printable pattern, this faux chenille bunny is the perfect gift for any little girl, whether it's Easter or not! With both Easter and a baby girl coming arriving in our home next month, today's project is one that will get double the use – my favorite kind of project!
Ready to get hopping?
Click HERE (affiliate link) to download and print the bunny template.
1. Print the bunny template using the link above. Ensure your printer is not set to scale before printing. Join template pieces along dotted line and cut along solid line.
2. Layer two sets of four 12″x12″ flannel pieces on top of each other, matching all four sides. If you are using assorted colors or prints of flannel, alternate the colors and prints evenly as pictured.
3. Pin flannel layers together every few inches throughout each stack.
4. Using one stack of flannel, stitch from one corner to the opposite corner in a diagonal line. If you have a walking foot, use it! It will help to keep all four layers in place as they are fed through the machine. If you don't have a walking foot, you may want to reduce the presser foot tension slightly to help prevent slipping and stretching of the top flannel layers.
5. Stitch parallel to diagonal line, 1/2″ apart from first diagonal line, and keep repeating until the entire 12″x12″ flannel stack is stitched with diagonal lines.

Imani Winds
Terra Incognita
E1 Music
Terra Incognita is woodwind quintet Imani Winds' fifth recording for E1. It consists of three newly commissioned pieces by composer-performers primarily associated with the jazz tradition. This past year on Sequenza 21, we've been talking a lot about 'indie classical',' a genre that incorporates rock instrumentation and signatures into a concert music context or, conversely, invites classical instruments and formal signatures into the indie rock arena. But it's important to remember that jazz has a long and storied history of interweaving its various paths with concert music, dating back at least one hundred years (or more!).
Jason Moran's Cane reflects an awareness of this cross-pollination. A four-movement suite, it's a tone poem based on his family's ancestral home in rural Louisiana. And while one can certainly detect jazz signatures in its lilting rhythms and engaging harmonic palette, acknowledgement of neoclassical composers such as Stravinsky and Hindemith also abound. It's a tip of the hat to early 20th century composers who crossed over from the other side of the stream – incorporating early jazz into their scores.
The title track is the first piece Wayne Shorter has written for an ensemble other than his own groups, but it too shows a deft awareness of scoring for winds in a concert music context. One particularly hears a tinge of Impressionism in Shorter's language – a whiff of Ravel's harmonies – something he's displayed for many years in elegant jazz originals.
Paquito D'Rivera not only composed Kites for Imani Winds, but he also appears as a guest clarinetist with the group; they're also joined by pianist Alex Brown. D'Rivera's score pits the syncopated rhythms of Latin jazz against piquant harmonies and ostinati reminiscent of early Stravinsky. It's a very attractive amalgam, and a tricky arrangement. The performers handle Kites' frequent flurried runs and quick changes of mood deftly and with considerable musicality.
Terra Incognita suggest that jazz and concert music can still blend into a hybridized form of music containing considerable eloquence.

Ingebrigt Håker Flaten – bass/compositions
Jeff Parker – guitar
Dave Rempis – reeds
Ola Kvernberg – violin
Jason Adasiewicz – vibraphone
Frank Rosaly – drums
"Flaten's Chicago Sextet is evidence that just the tip of this Scandinavian turned Texan's iceberg has been discovered."
– All About Jazz
"The six musicians succeed in stitching a tremendous amount of activity and variety into the album's relatively terse running time, and while not every detour delivers the same degree of dividends, the ambitious scope of the project is worth admiring."
– Dusted Magazine
"The Nordic bassist, now living in Austin, shows with this LP that in addition to being one of the best with the four strings at present, he is also a remarkable composer and arranger: – Tomajazz
Read the IHF Chicago Sextet Bio here. Listen to our music here. Buy our music here.
In 2004 I established the first group in my own name; a quintet consisting of musicians from Oslo and Stockholm with Klaus Holm (NO) on alto, Anders Hana (NO) on guitar, Ola Kvernberg (NO) on violin and Fredrik Rundquist (SE) on drums. When I moved to Chicago in 2006, the "group idea" traveled with me. I kept the instrumentation from the Scandinavian incarnation of the group, but changed the all of the instrumentalists-save for Ola. Added during the summer of 2011 was vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz, to round out the IHF Chicago Sextet. The group finished their third European tour in November/December of 2014. New music written for this tour are being planned recorded for their forthcoming album.
In 2012 we released the LP 'Live at Jazzfest Saalfelden 2011', it was released on Tektite Records, you can buy/listen to this record from my webshop here
The Sextet did another performance summer 2012 at the 'Jazz em Agosto' in Lisbon.
"The final concert in the garden was also one of the best, with bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten's Chicago Sextet achieving rare levels of drive and invention, with fellow Norwegian Ola Kvernberg channeling the ghosts of jazz-rock violin and an assemblage of the Midwest's finest. Guitarist Jeff Parker and drummer Frank Rosaly were as adept at overdriven rock as free jazz. Vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz and saxophonist Dave Rempis were brilliant, the latter's unaccompanied exploration of baritone multiphonics lingering long after the festival's final note."

Topic: Getting model type
I'm trying to create a multi-model observer that performs a before_save(model) to record the past and new state of the model. Obviously, the new model is passed, from which I can get the ID to find the old model. However, how do I find out what model the model is (ie: company, contact, address, etc) to pull that data? Or is there a way to figure out from the passed in model what it was before changes?
Thanks for the help!
Just in case I'm completely confusing, here's a template of the data I'm trying to generate:
PersonA updated the data:
ColumnA: oldValue => newValue
ColumnB: oldValue => newValue

And shipped as of around 10 am today, Eastern USA time.
Everyone received at least 5 samples. 11 of the earliest sign-ups are receiving all 6! Although, oddly I had one and only one sample packet leftover, so it is possible someone got shorted 1 sample. Hopefully not though!
I will be updating the first few posts of this topic to include the blind key, brewing suggestions, and the new rating system which we are asking you to use ... PLEEEEZE!

Topic: Recommend a Windows command line tool?
I'm becoming tired of the cmd.exe while dealing with the Rails console. Not getting line breaks and broken to_yaml is a pain. Not to mention colors and such.
Are there any alternatives? I could always break out Cygwin I guess but if there is an easier quick solution for working with cmd.exe that would be great.

What things do you find most useful when reading a review of a tea?
For me, I find that it is helpful if the reviewer isn't skimpy on practical details like color, how they brewed the tea etc. I also find that comparisons to other specific teas are often not helpful (especially since I'm new to drinking tea and don't have a lot of experience) -- but I could see how this might help a more seasoned reviewer *though such a person might not need help from reviews as much as newbies do!)
I also think there is an emotional/introspective component to tea, I do like knowing how tea makes people feel, even though I hardly ever have the same results.

I'm getting close with my dough now I just need it to be a bit more tender.
I would if I could Scott. The 900 degree claim is a little deceiving because the deck really won't get over 750. They put the thermostat halfway between the deck and the top of the oven and right next to the side burner. The oven is hotter than any deck oven I've seen but 2:30 minutes is about as fast a bake time as your going to get.

My approach to treating addiction is contingent on your abstinence. Once you are in a program so you are not using, my approach is to help you examine your need for the addiction and what purpose it serves in your life. This self-knowledge is helpful in understanding why you may feel controlled by your addiction, what it is defending against, and finding the willpower to remain abstinent.

Groove® turns tap water into freshly filtered water—the plant-based filter built into the straw removes chlorine, taste and odor as you sip. The double-walled insulation keeps your water cool and cuts down on condensation, making it easy to keep freshly-filtered water close at hand.
Turns tap water into freshly filtered water
Sustainable, plant-based filter lasts about 3 months or 48 gallons (180L) of water
Double-Wall bottle keeps water cool and reduces condensation
Easy to refill and easy to use bottle with a filter built into the straw
Durable and spill-proof
Easy to carry: Integrated loop handle makes it easy to clip a carabiner or carry with the crook of a finger
100% Free of BPA and BPS
Independently tested according to NSF/ANSI standard 42 for reduction of chlorine, taste and odor
CamelBak® Big Bite™ Valve is compatible with CamelBak® eddy™ and CamelBak® Groove® bottles
CamelBak® Got Your Bak™ Guarantee: If we built it, we'll Bak it™ with our lifetime guarantee.
Groove Instructions
Give your Fresh™ Filter a quick 15-second rinse the first time you use it to dislodge any harmless, loose particles of carbon, then set it aside, as no additional cleaning is recommended.
If you accidentally run your filter through the dishwasher, discard and replace it with a new filter.
Remove the carbon filter as it is not dishwasher safe.
The bottle, bite valve, straw and lid can be cleaned in the top rack of the dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water. Pull off the bite valve and straw from the cap. If you like to use a bottle brush, we don't recommend forcing a brush through the Bite Valve slit. If you have the brush kit, run the small brush through the straw.
For a deeper cleaning, add a drop of mild soap or tablespoon of bleach to a clean glass jar filled with water. Drop the bite valve, straw and cap into the solution, and tightly close the jar's lid. Shake the mixture around for 30 seconds, and then let the parts soak for about 15 minutes. Rinse and shake dry.
To re-assemble the lid:
Flip the stem collar (the component the bite valve attached to originally) to the open position. Orient the bite valve so the finger tab points towards the front of the cap. Push the bite valve firmly onto the stem collar.
Press the straw back into place on the bottom of the lid. Ensure the straw covers the notches completely.
The bite valve on my new bottle doesn't have a slit (opening) and I can't drink from it
The self-sealing silicone can sometimes seal tightly before first use. To open, squeeze the bite valve and twist & roll between your fingertips. This should loosen the seal and open it up for drinking. If you're still experiencing problems, please request a new bite valve using our Warranty Parts Form.
Is it hard to drink from the CamelBak® Groove®?
No. Drinking water from CamelBak® Groove® is easy and fast. CamelBak® Groove® employs Bite Valve technology - simply bite it slightly and sip as you would out of a straw. A recent study by Pepperdine University revealed that people who drink from CamelBak Bottles drink up to 24% more water than people who drink from other reusable bottles or plastic disposable bottles. So CamelBak® Groove® is so easy to drink from that it can help you be better hydrated.
Can I put hot water in my CamelBak® Groove®?
Warm water in your CamelBak® Groove® is just fine, NOT boiling water (maximum temperature: 100 degrees Fahrenheit). Please be aware that the experience will be similar to drinking hot liquid through a straw, so use caution.
Can I put ice in my CamelBak® Groove®?
Yes. Feel free to fill the bottle with ice, but be sure to leave enough room in the bottle for the filter housing and tube assembly when the cap is replaced.
Can a child use the CamelBak® Groove®?
Children age 5 and under should not use the CamelBak® Groove®. The Bite Valve could become dislodged and pose a choking risk.
What are the bottle and cap made from?
All CamelBak® bottles are constructed with materials carefully selected for their safety, durability, and ease of use. All materials are BPA-free, and safe for use in a hydration bottle. The CamelBak® Groove® is made from either Tritan or Stainless Steel. CamelBak does not use materials that contain harmful phthalates.
Tritan is a copolyester polymer made by the Eastman Company. Tritan makes CamelBak® Groove® vibrant, clear, durable, dishwasher-safe and 100% BPA-free and free of harmful phthalates.
The CamelBak® Groove® cap is an assembly of plastic materials made primarily from food-grade polypropylene selected for exceptional durability and safety. The Bite Valve is constructed with high grade silicone for life long, taste free performance; the straw is made from polyethylene, the same material used in milk bottles.
Can I use CamelBak® Groove® when I'm traveling abroad?
Only use the CamelBak® Groove® with potable tap water. The Fresh™ Filter contained in your CamelBak® Groove® does not remove harmful microscopic pathogens that may be contained in tap water outside of the US, Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.
Can I use CamelBak® Groove® when I'm hiking in the back country?
Only use the CamelBak® Groove® with potable tap water. The Fresh™ Filter contained in your CamelBak® Groove® is not a purifier and not certified to be effective against bacteria, cysts or viruses.

I LOVE THIS WATER BOTTLE. IT WAS THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT I RECEIVED (Actually, I got a different water bottle from a different company and didn't like it, so I exchanged it for this one which was a great decision.) It looks SO cool. When I walk down the hallway of my high school I feel like a swagmaster with my Groove water bottle. The only downside to this product is that you will acquire many friends who aren't in it for you, but really just wanna hang around you because you have the coolest water bottle on the face of the earth.

I used this water bottle almost daily, but there was a few times that I didn't use it for about two-four days and the straw had some organic growth in it afterwards. I washed it out with vinegar and got all of it out, but it did leave a stain.Then the stretchy part on the bite valve got a hole in it for some reason. I don't know if it is just one of those wear and tear things or what, but I could no longer drink water without getting a lot of air and making a lot of noise, so I haven't been using it since then. I do miss it though. Frustrating that there were so many problems with it.

Very nice, but I wish it Didn't take so much effort to suck
By Zalgebar
from Escondido, CA
I've been using an eddy for a while, but this one is really nice. My only real complaint is how much effort it takes to create enough suction to get the water through the filter.
CamelBak Groove Groovy!
By Pine Hill Phil
from Audubon, NJ
I primarily bought this bottle for camping and back packing, but I use it for all occasions, meetings, traveling, etc. The drinking straw makes it easier to use as opposed to the invert and squeeze type. It 's see-thru so you can see the water level. Filter makes water taste great. The fact it is double wall insulated prevents sweat on the outside of the bottle. I like the "handle". Easy to hold with fingers or a carabinr type device to hook it to something. The only thing I would like to see is some sort of device as a reminder to change the filter. Change intervals depend on usage. Great product.
Love this water bottle
By Irisheyes510

I love that I can use water from the faucet and from bubblers without worrying about taste. I can use ice from the freezer it doesn't leave a bad taste!
It leaks
By Secret
from Paducah Ky
I bought one of these cups at Gander Mountain and absolutely love it. My friend wanted one so I ordered this one online directly from you and it leaks. I got 2 cups that day and the other one is not the color in the pic.

Staying Cool!!
By Jo

I love this insulated bottle. It encourages me to drink more water and is always ready with a cool drink. Not moisture in my backpack and wonderful as a gift item to family or friends.

Best water bottle ever!!
By reggaeman
from North Cascades in Washington State
I use my double insulated & filtered water bottle all day long....every day. It works fantastic and does everything I expect from a water bottle.CamelBak water bottles are the best I have ever tried or used.
It is good but not as good as i expected
I use all the time and take it everywhere. It doesn't work as well as I expected in some areas. It still sweats a bit despite being insulated, it doesn't close well if you put ice in it, and it does leak just slightly. But I still love it and would recommend it to others.

About the Author: Kristin Haworth serves in the Economic Section at U.S. Embassy Bogota in Colombia.
On a sunny but chilly Bogota day, Marc Gonsalves and Thomas Howe walk across a parking lot, that, instead of cars, boasts a white and red painted Russian helicopter. It is not just any day, and this is not just any helicopter. It was this helicopter, exactly two years ago, that rescued Marc, Tom, Keith Stansell and 12 Colombian citizens, during the daring Colombian military operation "Jaque" ("checkmate"). The three American contractors were held hostage in the jungle for five years by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) after their drug surveillance plane crashed deep in the Colombian jungle. The U.S. Embassy Bogota in Colombia has, thanks to the Colombian Army, flown in the helicopter for the Fourth of July event on the embassy grounds this year.
Marc squints hard at the copter as he nears it, and a small crowd of onlookers gathers around him -- some holding copies of a book written by the three survivors. Both men pause for photos in front of the chopper, signing books, and greeting a few familiar faces in the crowd. It is the first time they've seen the helicopter since their rescue. Marc hovers near the door, posing for photos, but is clearly anxious to peek inside. He climbs in, and sits down near the jump seat. "I think I was sitting right here," he marvels. Tom joins him minutes later. "Looks a lot cleaner than I remember it!" he jokes. He sits next to his former colleague, and they reminisce about the day that changed their lives forever. "I was here, and Cesar was here," Marc says, motioning at the floor where the FARC leader in charge of the hostages had been handcuffed. "And he was just going crazy, trying to get away."
The men linger in the helicopter, chatting as the Bogota sun sinks a bit lower. It's almost time for the official event. VIPs stream in through the receiving line into the embassy's consular waiting area, which has been festooned with red, white, and blue balloons and photos of U.S. government programs in Colombia. U.S. Ambassador William R. Brownfield begins his remarks by acknowledging the anniversary of the rescue and reads aloud the names of the U.S. and Colombian hostages rescued that day, as well as the two men killed by the FARC after the U.S. plane crash, American pilot Tom Janis and Colombian police sergeant Luis Alcides Cruz.
"This day will always be for me 'Operation Jacque' day," he tells the assembled crowd, which includes former hostage and Colombian presidential candidate Ingrid Betancourt. "And on the Fourth of July 234 years ago, the founding fathers made a pact in the city of Philadelphia. It was more than just a declaration, it was about the universal principles that it represented: the freedom of the press, the freedom of assembly, the freedom to protest." The Ambassador concludes with a rousing toast: to the independence of both countries and the "democratic friendship" that binds us.
The community event follows. In the tradition of an American state fair, it features food tents, games, and a giant inflatable bouncy castle. Thousands of guests dance to the live beats of Colombian singer Jorge Celedon, the Colombian Navy band, and reggae-hip hop band Kyo. The highlight of the night, as it is at any Fourth of July celebration, is the booming fireworks display. As patriotic songs play, many in the crowd are likely reflecting upon the individual sacrifices so many have made for our country, including people like Marc Gonsalves, Thomas Howe, Keith Stansell, and Thomas Janis, who we never forgot.
