About MeHello from British Columbia, Canada!
My name is Jessica Bodnar originally from Pitt Meadows but have lived in Maple Ridge majority of my life. I currently live in Langley on a beautiful farm with my loving fiance.
Sports include volleyball and soccer that I play competitively. For my hobbies I horseback ride, show dogs professionally, fish, drive truck with my fiance, work on my old Ford and spend quality time with my cowboy, animals, friends and family.
My goals always include trying to make the best of each day as life is way too short. I have only just recently started modeling, never thought I could do it. A friend insisted for me to come along one time to a meet and greet. I have never had so much fun with people I just met. Modeling was the last thing on my mind but now that I have become involved I cant get enough of it. For now I would like to stick to everything except nudes as I am not comfortable yet with the concept. I am always looking for new people to shoot with as I want to expand my styles of photos. I hope to do modeling on the side as something for fun as I enjoy doing it and it makes me feel great! In the near future id love to travel outside of British Columbia or even Canada.
Shoot ideas that I would love to pursue are; Jessica Rabbit, Titanic, Moulon Rouge, Spiderman, With a Horse or Country style, Poison Ivy, Little Mermaid, Navy, Sailor, Metal Fabricator, Junk Yard or Mechanic Shop, Amongst Fall Leaves, Boston Bruins theme, Under water, Glow in the dark, Seasoned themed shoots, Dark and Nice Alice....
Hope you like my port as its growing. Good luck to everyone and best wishes!

The fact-checkers were out in full force during Thursday night's Republican presidential debate in Sioux City, Iowa.
It was the last gathering of the candidates before the Iowa caucuses on Jan. 3.
Several fact-checking outlets looked at claims made by Rep. Michele Bachmann on topics ranging from Iran's nuclear capabilities to the number of jobs that would be created during by building an oil pipeline.
So instead of doing our own check today, here's PoliGraph's round up of last night's best reports.
"We have an IAEA report that just recently came out that said literally Iran is within just months of being able to obtain that weapon," said Bachmann.
She is referring to a recent report by the International Atomic Energy Agency regarding Iran's nuclear program.
As FactCheck.org points out, unnamed sources told the Los Angeles Times shortly before the report came out that Iran had the technical ability to design a nuclear weapon within six months if it wanted to.
But FactCheck.org also writes that the actual report isn't so definitive. While the Agency believes that Iran has "serious concern regarding possible military dimensions to Iran's nuclear programme" and that intelligence gathered on the issue is "overall, credible," it stops short of saying that the country is "within months" of having an operative weapon.
The delayed Keystone XL pipeline "would have brought at least 20,000 jobs," Bachmann contended.
Several of the candidates, including Bachmann, criticized President Barack Obama for delaying action on the oil pipeline that would start in Canada and stretch as far as Texas.
Bachmann's jobs estimate is one frequently touted by TransCanada Corporation, the company proposing the project, and other proponents.
But it's on the high-end, because it assumes that only one person holds a pipeline related job for one year, FactCheck.org reports. So, if a pipeline construction job lasts for two years and the same person has the job, the number of jobs created declines.
Meanwhile, the State Department estimates that between 5,000 and 6,000 construction jobs would be created.
"The evidence is that Speaker Gingrich took $1.6 million [from Freddie Mac]. You don't need to be within the technical definition of being a lobbyist to still be influence peddling with senior Republicans in Washington, D.C., to get them to do your bidding," Bachmann said.
CNN previously reported that Newt Gingrich's consulting group had taken between $1.6 million and $1.8 million from Freddie Mac for its services.
But CNN said Bachmann's claim was misleading.
"While Freddie Mac was a Gingrich Group client, Bachmann did not offer hard evidence that Gingrich lobbied for Freddie Mac."
PolitiFact.com came to a similar verdict about Gingrich's history with Freddie Mac, writing that "Gingrich is technically correct that he was not a registered lobbyist for Freddie Mac. But it appears he took pains to avoid being subject to the rules. Giving strategic advice is widely considered a way of using political influence without having to register."

Renault 2.0 Eurocup: Vandoorne and Kvyat Set Testing Pace
Daniil Kvyat was among the drivers to watch during Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 testin in France
(Photo: Renault)
Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 was the first of the four World Series by Renault categories to get down to pre-season collective testing, with 46 drivers gathering at Paul Ricard for a two-day event. It was the more experienced hands who showed the way, with Stoffel Vandoorne (Josef Kaufmann Racing) fastest on Tuesday (March 6) and Daniil Kvyat (Koiranen Motorsport) topping the timesheets on Wednesday (March 7).
Quality and quantity seem to be the hallmarks of this seasons Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 field. After some hectic private testing through the winter months, the drivers and teams that will contest the 2012 championship finally came together for the first official collective testing sessions, spread over two days, and with no fewer than 46 FR 2.0s taking to the track at Paul Ricard.
With 10 drivers in all, France was the best-represented nation, followed by the UK, Netherlands, Brazil and Italy with four each. Following a brief preliminary lap, the field, comprising a fine blend of youth and experience, got down to business. First to make a mark were some of last seasons outstanding performers, among them Alex Riberas (Josef Kauffmann Racing). Sixth overall in Eurocup FR 2.0 in 2011 and a winner of one race, the Spaniard went fastest in the morning, ahead of Red Bull Junior Teams Kvyat, a two-time race winner and third overall last year, and Timmy Hansen (Interwetten.com Junior Team), who also topped the podium on one occasion last season.
Drivers and teams stuck to their task in the afternoon, the pace hotting up towards the end of the session as the first new tyres appeared. No more than a second separated first from 15th, as Vandoorne posted the days quickest lap of 2:03.922, just three tenths faster than Kvyat. Finishing a fine third was last seasons Formula Renault 2.0 UK runner-up Oliver Rowland (Fortec Motorsport), a new boy to the category.
Rowland continued to impress the following morning, the 2011 McLaren Autosport BRDC Award winner posting a time of 2:03.764 to unseat Vandoorne at the top of the timesheets. Kvyat then took full advantage of the improving track temperatures to record a mid-session time of 2:03.499, the fastest on either day. Try as they might in the afternoon, the rest of the field could not better the Russian title challenger, who left Paul Ricard with a spring in his step, with Rowland, Oscar Andres Tunjo (Tech 1 Racing), Norman Nato (RC Formula) and Patrick Kujala (Koiranen Motorsport), the leading rookies over both days, completing Wednesdays top-five.
"I want to win the title this season, so its important for me to get in among the leaders and stay there," stated Kvyat. "Its going to be a tight competition this year, and the key will be to maintain consistency and not make the slightest mistake. Ill also need to score big points early on because therell be a lot of drivers wholl get stronger as the season goes on."
"You cant really compare the times we did because we were all driving in different conditions at different times," added Vandoorne. "Weve got a specific programme to stick to and things are going fine. Weve got some good pace going, and it promises to be a very competitive season.
The latest edition of the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 commences on May 5-6, with Motorland Aragon in playing host to the opening rounds.
The top-three will be posted following every session on the

Do I put them back into the box until all the sheets are exposed, and then send off the whole box to be processed?:confused: I'm not going to try to process E-6 stuff in the cellar.

text: Sep 14, 2011 - I use this shampoo a couple of times a week and it's been wonderful for me. I agree that the new version is a big improvement over the old version. It smells wonderful and makes my hair feel clean, slightly conditioned, and healthy. It also gives my hair more body. I agree with a previous poster - you do need to shake the bottle well before you use it. That seems to thicken it up a little more and makes it suds a little more. I'm taking one star off only because I do have to use quiet a bit of it and I go through it pretty fast. Otherwise, it's awesome.

Colors & Decorating Advice for Basement Remodel
Hi All,
I'm in the process of finishing my basement and although I can handle most remodeling tasks, I struggle with design and color choices. Below, you'll see a 3D model of the basement layout and basic design ideas. At this point, the framing and drywall is complete. I'm now at the point where I need to decide on colors, themes, etc, so I can paint the walls and do the trim work.
Some predefined choices: The outlets are black and the coverplates are metalic (Stainless steel). The bar top is a black granite look.
Our preference is to go with white trim and doors with a light blue wall color. In addition, I will have a bar with cabinetry below, some tile in front of the bar, an entertainment center and potentially some shelving and toyboxes for the kids. Based on what I've described, what colors should I be going with for the bar cabinets, entertainment center, tile and toyboxes? Will the black outlets work with the white trim and doors? Any other thoughts on wall color, designs or anything else?
It's funny how these seemingly simple decisions are turning out to be the most difficult part of the project and could easily have the most impact on the final look. Any suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated.
Link to basement layout pic:
What is the plan for flooring and its color? Ceilings are drywalled or open? You say the black outlets with chrome coverplates are a done deal? So you are asking about white trim compatibility with the thought of changing it, not switching out the outlets? For example, where are the outlets and other electrical things? Outlets got moved to baseboard area or are they around the ceiling? Are those small windows along the one wall? Overall dimensions are (not critical for picking color but nice to know).
With my customers I like to clearly make the distinction that a painter APPLIES the choices, a decorator helps you to make them. Quite a different biz.
Basement dimension of the open finished area is roughly 23'x26' and the office is 8'x9'. Haven't really decided the color of flooring yet, but it will be carpeted. If you have a color suggestion, that would be good. The area around the bar could be tile or something similar. The ceiling is a drop ceiling with white 2x2 tiles. Yes, those are small windows along the one wall.
As for the trim and outlets... I suppose everything "could" be changed, but for now I would assume they are a done deal. Outlets are placed around the basement near the baseboards. Each wall has one or more outlets. There is also an outlet over the bar counter top and a couple for the TV and entertainment center, in between the bar and sump pump.
The color scheme started when my wife saw a picture of a basement with light blue walls, light colored wood and white trim. She thought the black outlets and stainless steal cover plates were a nice contrast. Now when it's time to put it all together, we're second guessing and looking for alternate ideas.

Deputy Assistant Secretary of Labor for Vets John M. McWilliam
Testimony of
John M. McWilliam
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Operations and Management
Veterans' Employment and Training Service
U.S. Department of Labor
Before the
Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity
Committee on Veterans Affairs
U.S. House of Representatives
March 31, 2011
Chairman Stutzman, Ranking Member Braley, and members of the Subcommittee:
Thank you for the opportunity to appear as a witness before the Subcommittee and speak to you on the Department's interagency cooperation with the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VR&E), and our joint efforts to serve our nation's disabled veterans in need of VR&E services that lead to employment.
The Veterans' Employment and Training Service (VETS) proudly serves Veterans and transitioning Service Members by providing resources and expertise to assist and prepare them to obtain meaningful careers, maximize their employment opportunities and protect their employment rights. We do that through four major programs that are an integral part of Secretary Solis's vision of "Good Jobs for Everyone."
- The Jobs for Veterans State Grants (JVSG), which provide Federal funds to support State-employed Local Veterans' Employment Representatives (LVERS) and Disabled Veterans' Outreach Program Specialists (DVOPs);
- The Transition Assistance Program Employment Workshops (TAP);
- The Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program (HVRP); and
- The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).
Much of VETS' interaction with the VR&E program is through the Workforce Investment System and the outstationing of Disabled Veterans' Outreach Program specialists (DVOPs) at VR&E offices. Accordingly, VETS continues to work in partnership with its JVSG recipients on behalf of VR&E job-ready veterans who are referred to and registered with State Workforce Agencies (SWA) for intensive employment services.
The Disabled Veterans' Outreach Program (DVOP) is a State grant program started in 1977 and authorized by Section 4103(A) of Title 38, United States Code. DVOP specialists provide intensive employment assistance to meet the employment needs of eligible Veterans. DVOP specialists provide intensive services at the One-Stop Career Centers and at the VR&E offices. They also provide recovery and employment assistance to wounded and injured Service Members receiving care at Department of Defense military treatment facilities and Warrior Transition Units through the Recovery & Employment Assistance Lifelines (REALifelines) program, working closely with the VR&E rehabilitation counselors also at these facilities. DVOPs focus their services to disabled Veterans. DVOPs also provide services through the Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program, Veterans' Workforce Investment Program, Transition Assistance Program, and Incarcerated Veterans' Transition Program.
Background of Collaboration
In 2005, senior leadership from VETS and VR&E, including the then Assistant Secretary for VETS and Director for VR&E, met with the Subcommittee staff to discuss how the two agencies could better collaborate. As a result of that meeting, a new Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the Department of Labor (DOL) and VA was executed and three work groups were established. These three work groups subsequently were combined into a Joint Working Group (JWG).
The VA/DOL Joint Working Group (JWG)
The goal of the JWG is to improve the quality of employment services and job placements for veterans enrolled in VR&E programs.
DOL and VA leadership have taken an active role with the JWG. I have taken a personal interest in this issue and was involved in the three work groups and in the creation of the JWG. I take this cooperative effort very seriously.
The three work groups were established to execute the requirements of the MOA. VETS' participants have included one individual from each of our six regions and at least three individuals from the national office. The three work groups dealt with the following subjects:
- Performance Measures for Assessment of Partnership Program Results;
- Curriculum Design; and
- Joint Data Collection, Analysis, and Reports.
These groups made significant accomplishments; they:
- Facilitated a pilot program to identify and catalogue best practices from existing sites. This one-year pilot involved eight locations nationwide.
- Developed roles and responsibilities for the major agencies involved in the VR&E process.
- Identified the major issues to providing shared data between the VA and DOL.
- Identified the joint training requirements for both DOL/VETS and VR&E employees involved in employment assistance at the VR&E locations.
- Developed a technical assistance guidance document that specified the roles and responsibilities and reporting requirements for both DOL/VETS and VR&E staff.
Both DOL and the VA subsequently published this technical assistance guidance document in December 2008.
As a result of the initiative to clearly identify roles and responsibilities, we have designated the outstationed DVOP position at the VR&E offices as an Intensive Service Coordinator (ISC). This designation, with new duty requirements, clearly differentiates the work required at VR&E sites from the roles of the DVOP at a One Stop Career Center. The ISC provides employment information to VR&E participants during their rehabilitation program, and refers them at the end of the program to DVOPs at One Stop Career Centers. The DVOPs at One Stop Career Centers then provide intensive services to referred participants to assist them in obtaining employment.
Besides working with Job-Ready Veterans, the JWG also planned to involve DVOPs at the front end of VR&E process to help Veterans determine local labor market information. This interaction was intended to facilitate the rehabilitation planning process by providing the Veteran and the VR&E counselor with current data on salary and job outlook as well as increasing understanding of working conditions for specific occupations.
In December 2008, the end of the pilot program was marked by a webcast to all VR&E locations that initiated the implementation phase of this project.
In support of the technical assistance guidance, in 2009 VETS issued guidance that each state's JVSG Five Year Strategic Plan (FY 2010-2015) would include the outstationing of a DVOP specialist at each VR&E Regional Office. All states subsequently incorporated the ISC into their FY 2010 state plans.
Following this first year of implementation in 2010, VA and DOL will evaluate the program under the new guidance, and determine if changes are required to either the MOA or the technical assistance guidance.
Current Status of DOL Support to the VR&E Program
VETS continues to work to ensure that a DVOP is outstationed at each of the 57 VR&E Regional Offices. In some instances, the states, due to staffing allowances or traditional roles, still have assigned at a VR&E office a Local Veterans Employment Representative (LVER), fulfilling the role of an ISC. There is currently either a DVOP specialist or LVER outstationed at least half-time in 48 of the VA Regional Offices and in 19 satellite offices. This equates to 51.0 FTE DVOP and 4.0 FTE LVER for a total FTE of 55.0.
In FY 2010, 4,989 disabled Veterans who completed VR&E were referred to the State Workforce Agencies for intensive employment services. Of these, 1,764 were placed into employment for a placement rate of 35 percent. This was at an average annual wage of $37,800.
During the first quarter of FY 2011, 1,323 referrals were made to the State Workforce Agencies. We do not have final information on their outcomes at this point.
The VETS focus on serving disabled veterans who participate in the VE&E program remains of utmost importance to us. The ultimate goal in this VA/DOL partnership is successful job placement and adjustment to employment for disabled veterans without duplication, fragmentation, or delay in the services provided.
We are proud of our collaboration with the VA to increase employment opportunities for service-disabled veterans. That positive working relationship has also carried over into other initiatives and strengthened cooperation and coordination between VETS and our state workforce partners.
This concludes my statement and I would be happy to respond to any questions.

Winner of the Miles Franklin Award and recognised as one of the greatest works of Australian literature, Cloudstreet is Tim Winton's sprawling, comic epic about luck and love, fortitude and forgiveness, and the magic of the everyday.
After two separate catastrophes, two very different families leave the country for the bright lights of Perth. The Lambs are industrious, united and – until God seems to turn his back on their boy Fish – religious. The Pickleses are gamblers, boozers, fractious, and unlikely landlords.
Chance, hardship and the war force them to swallow their dignity and share a great, breathing, shuddering joint called Cloudstreet. Over the next twenty years they struggle and strive, laugh and curse, come apart and pull together under the same roof, and try as they can to make their lives.
'This is that rare book, a novel of both heart and intellect. It pulses with a sense of wonder and shines with the clear light of truth.' Robert Drewe
'One of the great masterpieces of world fiction.' Philip Hensher
'If you have not read Cloudstreet, your life is diminished . . . if you have not met these characters, this generous community, these tragedies, the humour. It is so wonderful.' Mem Fox
'Cloudstreet is a comic, poignant and intelligent tour de force.' Jim Crace
'A groundbreaking Australian narrative [with an] irresistible combination of the domestic and the mythic.' Thomas Keneally
'Reading Cloudstreet for the first time was like a summer dream from which I wished never to wake.' Gillian Mears
'Cloudstreet is the sole epic of contemporary Australian literature: in it, Winton paints on the same canvas as Xavier Herbert and Patrick White.' Geordie Williamson
'A writer of tremendous zest, warmth and humour.' Graham Swift

Parking meter Q&A
Parking questions with answers provided by the mayor's office
When will the new meters be installed?
The ParkIndy team expects to begin implementing the new technology in the first quarter of 2011. Some of the meters will be multi-space box meters while others will be single space meters with credit card capabilities.
What are the new rates and when do they do they take effect?
The rates will not increase until the new technology is installed. The same goes for the hours. Once the meters are installed the rates will be as follows:
Zone 1 - $1
Zone 2 - $1
Zone 3 - $.75
Zone 4 - $1
Zone 1 - $1.50
Zone 2 - $1
Zone 3 - $1
Zone 4 - $1.50
The hourly parking rates outlined are maximums, not minimums. This allows the City and the concessionaire to reduce rates if parking at a meter significantly declines. The concessionaire has already suggested reducing rates in various areas to optimize use. Under the agreement, rates cannot be raised in a Zone until the new technology is implemented.
What are the new hours of operation for city meters?
Zone 1 (Downtown core) and Zone 4 (Broad Ripple) meters will operate from 7a.m. to 9 p.m., Monday - Saturday
Zone 2 (Downtown other) meters will operate from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday - Saturday
Zone 3 (Residential) meters will continue to operate from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday - Friday
This will align the evening times for meters in Broad Ripple and Mass Ave. These hours, including Saturday hours, will go into effect at the same time as the rates
What payment options will I have?
New meters will accept coins, credit, and debit cards. In addition: Pay box receipts are portable and can be used at other meters up to the expiration time. So if a motorist wants to buy two hours of time at a meter to have breakfast, he or she can continue to use the receipt to run errands at businesses served by meters. Being able to take unused time with you is a significant difference from single space meters that leave unused time for the next driver to take.
The project includes a parking garage for Broad Ripple? What's the status of that?
Mayor Ballard has emphasized through this entire process that we will work with Broad Ripple to help identify ways to fund a parking garage. Revenues from the meters must, by state statute, be used on infrastructure improvements in areas with parking meters - this includes parking infrastructure such as parking garages. As a result a portion of the $20M upfront payment may be used to help fund a garage in Broad Ripple. The timeline for this project has not yet been determined.
When will we start seeing some of the other infrastructure improvements?
Work on infrastructure can be expected to begin in early 2011.
I'm concerned about using my credit card at a meter. What safeguards will be in place?
Suggested Links
Credit card information will be encrypted and secure. The new meter technology is compliant with Payment Card Industry Security Standards. This set of requirements ensures that companies that process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. No credit card information is kept within the payboxes/meters; all information is transmitted to a back office operation.
Will parking fines also go up?
Parking fines will remain at the current level of $20 and will increase in proportion of the meter rates. The Council retains control of increasing or decreasing the fine amount.

Protein may be target for Crohn's therapy
By Nathan Seppa, 15:48 PM April 15, 2008
A protein called MIF–short for macrophage migration inhibitory factor–plays a central role in the process of inflammation. Researchers now report that MIF's actions extend to the intestines. Their findings suggest that the protein perpetuates the chronic inflammation that characterizes Crohn's disease, a painful gut disorder.
In a series of experiments, the scientists induced mice to develop intestinal inflammation, or colitis. While not identical to Crohn's disease in people, this mouse ailm...

Prairie Floor Plans
Sponsored by:
The Prairie house plan is a purely American style of architecture, developed by the preeminent architect of the early 20th century, Frank Lloyd Wright. This was one of the first examples of modern architecture, utilizing horizontal lines, minimal decorative motifs, and contemporary building materials. Prairie style homes are characterized by their low-lying rooflines with wide overhanging eaves and cantilevered forms that seem to blend into the landscape, which is why they were originally prominent in the flatlands of the Midwest. This style draws on Japanese architecture, utilizing exposed wood rafters and pagoda-like elements. Build your prairie home on a large rural lot or in town where it will be the standout on the block.
The roofline of a prairie home is almost always hipped with a low pitch. The primary floor plan of the home will be two stories with porches extending from the main block. These porches are usually supported by large square piers that often extend to ground level. Windows are tall casement windows, placed in horizontal rows and sometimes wrapping around the corners as is popular in modern homes. They often have leaded glass with small geometric panes. Exterior materials are light colored brick, stucco, and wood, with horizontal patterns incorporated into wall materials.
Prairie style plans are usually open, with characteristic built-ins and numerous decorative wood elements highlighting the interior, as this style was part of the Arts and Crafts movement of the early 20th century. Large expanses of windows will provide views to the exterior. There will also be cozy nooks for a study, sunroom, or breakfast room.

Hussey Delivers
Fond Farewell
Featured News | 18th August 2010
David Hussey has backed Nottinghamshire to push hard for LV= County Championship glory having played the final match of his latest stint at Trent Bridge.
Hussey will depart this weekend having been asked to lead Victoria's Champions League challenge after regular skipper Cameron White elected to represent Bangalore Royal Challengers.
His contribution of 399 LV= County Championship runs at an average of 73.4 was helped by a high score of 251 against Yorkshire at Headingley and he contributed 524 runs to the Outlaws' Friends Provident t20 campaign.
"I've had a great time here and I'll definitely be back at some point in the future," said Hussey.
"It's a great dressing room to be part of and that's been helped by the fact that we've pushed so hard in all three competitions."
Nottinghamshire Director of Cricket Mick Newell expects to sign a replacement overseas player in time for his side's Clydesdale Bank 40 match against Leicestershire in two weeks time with Steven Mullaney expected to fill the void during next week's LV= County Championship match against Lancashire

Lagrangian controllability at low Reynolds number∗

2 Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, M2N, Case 2D 5000, 292 rue Saint-Martin, 75003 Paris, France.
Accepted: 7 June 2016
In this paper, we establish a result of Lagrangian controllability for a fluid at low Reynolds number, driven by the stationary Stokes equation. This amounts to the possibility of displacing a part of a fluid from one zone to another by suitably using a boundary control. This relies on a weak variant of the Runge–Walsh's theorem (on approximation of harmonic functions) concerning the Stokes equation. We give two variants of this result, one of which we believe to be better adapted to numerical simulations.

Re: Frank Walker?
Personal Foul type stuff...he had one yesterday that was at first attributed to CMac, but then they corrected the number to Frank Walker's. He's had a ton of Personal Fouls and Def Pass Interference calls..

Two games and two penilty calls against Walker. Howerver I still say the one from week one during Figur's Punt return was a bad call.Pffffff! I trust wikipedia more than the NFL. If anyone would know football, it is clearly wikipedia.

Re: Frank Walker?
I was saying Walker should be cut after the preseason, but I take it all back. The guy played great in the Cory Ivy roll of the defense. He locked Winslow up 1 on 1 several times, and dropped him 1 on 1 in the open feild when he did give up a grab.
If a guy needs to run his mouth to move his feet I am all for it. He is going to look worse if he gets beat, but if it helps and it is not a penalty go for it. It seemed to rattle Winslow. Not like Ray did to his ribs, but Walker may have shaken up his fragile mind.

Haven't tried it yet. Choose one you like- different brands taste different. Mildest with a nutty favor is KAL imported Yeast Flakes.

As for the dehydrator- I've no idea. I've never used one.

Maybe a reader will step up and respond to your question.

You can double bake the crackers to make them more crisp, if you like.

If they turn out too soft, break them into pieces and bake them again- much like baking biscotti twice. The second time is just for a few minutes to get them crispy.

Thanks for the shout-out on my recipe. Much appreciated!

I wanted to say I have made those expensive flax seed crackers at home and they work quite well. I soak the whole flax seeds (I blend the light and dark varieties for fun...) for 24 hours in my blender on the counter, then drain any excess liquid. They should have tiny little white sprouts. Then I toss in whatever spices I am in the mood for, typically garlic powder, italian seasoning and some parmesan or romano and blend away. I highly reccomend the VitaMix blender BTW. Then I gloop the stuff out onto parchment paper, spray a sheet of plastic wrap to put on top - to help smooth everything out very thinly - then take off the plastic and bake at 200 degrees till they are all dried out and crispy. Yummmmmm! You dont have to blend the flax seeds but I hate having things stuck in my teeth and I feel like whole flax seeds are too hard on the gut.

It is increasingly common for English lawyers to be consulted by a client with an offshore legal problem.
There are any number of reasons for major offshore litigation. There may be an offshore resident who is a prospective defendant, or an offshore jurisdiction clause in the material document. It may also be the only workable jurisdiction where the proposed defendant has any presence at all. The Thyssen litigation in Bermuda is the leading example recently of very substantial offshore litigation – but there are plenty of others.
The purpose of this article is to give some tips as to what to do next and how to ensure that your litigation runs as smoothly as possible.
One of the first considerations is whether English lawyers have rights of audience. The rules vary between jurisdictions. For instance, it is possible in the Isle of Man and some of the Caribbean jurisdictions for English barristers to obtain licences to appear before the courts. However, in Guernsey and Jersey, only locally-admitted advocates may appear.
In any event, you are almost certain to require local advice and representation to some greater or lesser extent, and although the various law firm directories are helpful, they are very far from infallible. There is no substitute for personal recommendations. In addition, most offshore firms are small – at least by City standards – and it is important for those instructing to consider not just the firm's size but also its strength in depth. There is little to be gained in instructing the firm with the largest litigation department if it consists largely of trainees and only a handful of partners with any real experience. In large matters, it pays to ensure that the firm has an experienced team ready to assist irrespective of holidays, illness or other absences. Depending on the amount at stake it may well be appropriate to visit the jurisdiction to interview the firms concerned and to make enquiries generally. Speed can also be of the essence given the limited number of firms in such jurisdictions. The early bird gets the firm, not the worm, in this instance.
Often the first questions upon which advice will be sought are procedural: to what extent do the Civil Procedure Rules apply? (to which the answer is often "not at all" – and certainly not directly); how is evidence given?; is this even the proper forum?
Although many Anglocentric offshore jurisdictions operate a system of procedure resembling English practice, there are often important differences which can produce significant consequences. There are few texts devoted to a particular jurisdiction. In Guernsey we have Gordon Dawes' Laws of Guernsey, which provides a helpful overview and understanding of the extent to which the jurisdiction mirrors English law and practice and, more importantly, how it does not. An English lawyer might be surprised to discover that in Guernsey it is not normal practice to exchange witness statements, and there is an almost total prohibition on hearsay. Experts, in effect, need to be present during the relevant parts of the trial in order to be able to present an opinion.
Differences such as these are quite fundamental. It is also critical to agree at an early stage a 'chain of command' between the various onshore and offshore lawyers and their mutual client. How this is to operate can in large part depend on the degree of involvement of the offshore jurisdiction. If the main battle is to take place in that jurisdiction, then it may be that the offshore firm will take the lead in strategic matters.
If, rather, the offshore dispute is a satellite matter (such as where the main proceedings are being conducted in London with freezing orders in one or more offshore jurisdictions), then the reverse may be appropriate. Where there are parallel proceedings raising similar issues running in two or even three jurisdictions, chaos may ensue unless there are clearly defined lines of communication. A recent example involved a Guernsey company arguing that the proper forum of the dispute was not Guernsey but Russia. Diligent enquiries uncovered proceedings in the US, where the same company was saying that the proper forum for that dispute was certainly not Russia, largely on the basis that the courts of Russia were allegedly so corrupt that no fair hearing was possible. It may be of little surprise that the forum non conveniens application in Guernsey was dismissed. Needless to say, such gaffes can cause considerable damage to a case. Yet, in the absence of proper communication and overall control, they can arise.
Allied to this are considerations such as what work is to be carried out by which firm, and who should instruct experts. This can often be linked to consideration of whether the fees of an onshore instructing firm are recoverable in the offshore jurisdiction. You need to know the offshore jurisdiction's fees rules. If there is doubt, it may be sensible for preparation to be undertaken by the offshore firm. At the very least, the client should be warned of the possible non-recoverability of the onshore firm's fees, otherwise much embarrassment and unhappiness may ensue. There may also be sales tax advantages to disbursements being incurred by the offshore firm, rather than an English firm, obviously within the bounds of what is both lawful and appropriate.
Document management is also very important. Thought should be given to establishing an intranet site, containing relevant documents, accessible to all those lawyers instructed by the mutual client. Where there are several jurisdictions and many documents involved, this could easily save a small fortune in fax and courier charges. It can also assist lawyers in the different jurisdictions to obtain information on how proceedings in the other jurisdictions are developing, as well as avoiding duplication of costs in preparing disclosure lists. It is obviously important that everyone understands at least the outline of what is going on and where. Regular schedules of work, setting out who is to do what and by when, are also helpful.
Finally, regard should also be given as to whether any special facilities may be necessary to hear the case. In most jurisdictions courts will assist wherever possible. For instance, in Guernsey it is not uncommon for a senior English silk lieutenant bailiffs to be appointed to hear particularly complex or substantial cases.
Certainly, you will want to be informed about your tribunal. Civil trials in Guernsey take place before a judge and a jury comprising three or more lay magistrates who decide issues of fact. This can be of fundamental importance when assessing strategy and the attractiveness of any given point. A highly technical defence, then, is less likely to succeed before a Guernsey court.
In addition, you should consider the appeal procedure and what form the appeal hierarchy takes in the jurisdiction concerned. For example, in Guernsey we have a Court of Appeal of the very highest quality, drawing upon such eminent silks as Jonathan Sumption, Michael Beloff, Elizabeth Gloster, Christopher Clarke and Richard Southwell, to name but a few.
In short, if you think you have a dispute which either involves a question of offshore law or will be resolved in an offshore jurisdiction, then move quickly to instruct the best firm available within the relevant jurisdiction and then take account of the kind of issues touched upon above. All of this will help to ensure that proceedings in offshore jurisdictions need not be a fraught experience.

Roads of Destiny HTML version
The Passing Of Black Eagle
For some months of a certain year a grim bandit infested the Texas border along the Rio
Grande. Peculiarly striking to the optic nerve was this notorious marauder. His
personality secured him the title of "Black Eagle, the Terror of the Border." Many
fearsome tales are on record concerning the doings of him and his followers. Suddenly, in
the space of a single minute, Black Eagle vanished from earth. He was never heard of
again. His own band never even guessed the mystery of his disappearance. The border
ranches and settlements feared he would come again to ride and ravage the mesquite
flats. He never will. It is to disclose the fate of Black Eagle that this narrative is written.
The initial movement of the story is furnished by the foot of a bartender in St. Louis. His
discerning eye fell upon the form of Chicken Ruggles as he pecked with avidity at the
free lunch. Chicken was a "hobo." He had a long nose like the bill of a fowl, an
inordinate appetite for poultry, and a habit of gratifying it without expense, which
accounts for the name given him by his fellow vagrants.
Physicians agree that the partaking of liquids at meal times is not a healthy practice. The
hygiene of the saloon promulgates the opposite. Chicken had neglected to purchase a
drink to accompany his meal. The bartender rounded the counter, caught the injudicious
diner by the ear with a lemon squeezer, led him to the door and kicked him into the street.
Thus the mind of Chicken was brought to realize the signs of coming winter. The night
was cold; the stars shone with unkindly brilliancy; people were hurrying along the streets
in two egotistic, jostling streams. Men had donned their overcoats, and Chicken knew to
an exact percentage the increased difficulty of coaxing dimes from those buttoned-in vest
pockets. The time had come for his annual exodus to the south.
A little boy, five or six years old, stood looking with covetous eyes in a confectioner's
window. In one small hand he held an empty two-ounce vial; in the other he grasped
tightly something flat and round, with a shining milled edge. The scene presented a field
of operations commensurate to Chicken's talents and daring. After sweeping the horizon
to make sure that no official tug was cruising near, he insidiously accosted his prey. The
boy, having been early taught by his household to regard altruistic advances with extreme
suspicion, received the overtures coldly.
Then Chicken knew that he must make one of those desperate, nerve-shattering plunges
into speculation that fortune sometimes requires of those who would win her favour. Five
cents was his capital, and this he must risk against the chance of winning what lay within
the close grasp of the youngster's chubby hand. It was a fearful lottery, Chicken knew.
But he must accomplish his end by strategy, since he had a wholesome terror of
plundering infants by force. Once, in a park, driven by hunger, he had committed an
onslaught upon a bottle of peptonized infant's food in the possession of an occupant of a
baby carriage. The outraged infant had so promptly opened its mouth and pressed the

The addiction paradox
Drug dependence has two faces — as a chronic disease and a temporary failure to cope
By Bruce Bower, 12:37 PM March 6, 2014
Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman's February death from a drug overdose triggered media reports blaming the terrible disease of addiction for claiming another life. But calling addiction a "disease" may be misguided, according to an alternative view with some scientific basis. Most people who are addicted to cigarette smoking, alcohol or other drugs manage to quit, usually on their own, after experiencing major attitude adjustments. Although relapses occur, successes ultimately outnumber fatalitie...

Yes, it's another week of absolutely nothing for Nintendo's much-abused unloved red-headed stepchild of a service, the Virtual Console.
You might say that it's unfair that I point this out when I haven't been writing about the Virtual Console releases that have happened. Okay, you should definitely buy Pulseman, the import-only Genesis action game from the creators of Pokemon. And yeah, Super Punch-Out!! is totally worth it, as is Zelda: Majora's Mask.
So that's three truly great old games — since GDC. Remember when we got Excitebike, Splatterhouse, and Beyond Oasis all in one day? In one day! We thought those days would live forever. Now, we have traded in awesome retro games for mediocre WiiWare games. It is to weep.
Silly me for thinking that Virtual Console's offerings would expand as Wii's userbase grew. Wouldn't that make sense? That a larger, more diverse group of players would support a broader library of games? Guess that's not how it works, after all.

Dear Readers,
Some of you are bloggers, some aren't. Those of you who aren't probably have no idea what happens behind the scenes for each and every one of the lovely blogs you read, or how much time those things take. Those who are, you are well aware that there is a "right" way to blog, according to the "experts" of the field. It requires constant blog growth, constant attention and maintenance, constant social media activity… Well, I'm sick and tired of constantly doing it the "right" way. As you may know, I think that the "right" way is often wrong.
I began blogging because I was passionate about sharing what I was learning about home birth, natural remedies, real food and all the other things happening in my life. I was especially eager to create a community where Christian mamas could learn about herbs without having to resort to some New Age site. Christian natural living sites were few and far between when I began blogging over two years ago. Now, you can find hundreds of these wonderful sites! I'm thrilled to have helped pave the way… but…
I'm finding that the "right" way to blog is now about competition. As a blogger, nearly every post I write is in competition for your attention. There are so many other bloggers who are out there saying many of the same things. There are so many bloggers out there with "virtual assistants" to help them, because their blogs are so big and busy that they can't keep up with everything on their own (by the way, there's nothing wrong with virtual assistants, but it's not the answer for me). The "point" of blogging (according to the experts) is to grow bigger to make more money. Well, if that's the point, then I QUIT. At least, I quit when it comes to doing it "the right way."
The "right" way is about far more than just writing a post that I hope will bless my readers. The "right" way is about visits per month, pageviews, social networking, numbers of shares, numbers of "likes", number, numbers, numbers. But you are not just numbers! You are wives. You are mamas. You are human beings. And so am I.
I am missing out on my life while I blog about living. I'm busy "growing" my blog, when I should be busy growing my children up in the Lord. I'm making decisions on how to spend my time based on whether or not my blog will benefit, rather than whether my family will benefit. This is wrong.
When I first started blogging, I had anywhere from 15-25 hours a week of "free" time. Both my girls napped for a few hours every afternoon. My hubby had a job where he often worked well past their 8PM bedtime, so I had time to burn then, too. Now, my eldest has homeschool while my youngest naps and my hubby is home well before their bedtime (yay!!!!). The season in my life when I could spend 20-30+ hours a week blogging (and, yes, that's what it takes to "do it right") is over.
So, am I shutting down Creative Christian Mama? Nope. But it will be changing. I will have one "computer day" per week. That will include writing posts, editing photos, replying to e-mails, answering questions/comments, updating Facebook (did you know we bloggers can pre-schedule things on Facebook?? Cool, huh??) and doing any necessary blog maintenance (all that yucky behind the scenes stuff). You, dear readers, might not even notice all that much of a change, but it will be very different for my family. My girls will see my face all day, rather than the back of my head.
For you, the things you might notice are that I will not be able to answer every question or comment, though I love to hear from you! Those that I do get to answer will probably not be answered in a timely fashion. It's not because you're not important, but because I will only be dropping into the social media scene (what I call the "bloggy world") once a week. I want to write for you and I can't do that if I'm busy answering countless e-mails, questions and requests every day. I will be keeping my online store open and we even have plans to expand it and make it into a part-time family business! That is something that I can include my girls (and even my hubby) in, so it's a blessing for you and for my family!
If you might not even really notice a difference, then why am I telling you all this? First, because I don't want you to think I'm ignoring you. Most importantly, though, is that I want to encourage you to take a close look at how you're spending your time and see if you need to make some changes, too. Whether you run a blog (for profit, or not), read blogs, spend lots of time on Facebook, spend hours a day watching TV, keep your smart phone in front of your face… whatever you're spending your time on, make sure it's what you really should be doing. Do what matters. In twenty years, few of you will remember much about me, but my children will remember how I spent their childhoods. I don't want them to remember me with my face glued to the computer screen. They are too important for that. So are your children, mamas.
Blessings to all of you!

Video: Composer-Pianist Vijay Iyer's Harlem Home
Composer, pianist, electronic music producer and 2013 MacArthur Fellow Vijay Iyer has built a career of making connections in music... literally. Increasingly recognized as one of the most inventive musicians working today, he received an interdisciplinary Ph.D. in music cognition at U.C. Berkley, released three albums with poet and hip-hop artist Mike Ladd, and blended traditional Indian and jazz styles with the critically-acclaimed trio Tirtha. He's also collaborated with the New York City rap outfit Dead Prez, free-jazz icon Roscoe Mitchell and Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Ensemble. In January, he joined the faculty of Harvard University's Department of Music.
Last month, he released Mutations, his 18th album as a bandleader. Scored for strings, piano and electronics, the record melds touches of jazz with electronic music and unraveling minimalism.
For the second episode of Q2 Spaces: Season Two, we visited the East Harlem apartment where Iyer has lived for the last two years with his wife and daughter. His piano is set up on the first floor in a room lined mostly with books about neuroscience, music and listening. On a small table are carved Indian deities – his parents moved to the United States 50 years ago – and leaning against the wall is a poster of his hero Thelonious Monk.
Iyer tells about his first memorable musical experience improvising with his sister on the family's spinet piano, the constant inspiration of Harlem's rich cultural heritage, his love of South Indian Carnatic music and the single biggest influence on his music: the history of jazz.

Henry magic lifts Gunners
Page Tools
Thierry Henry, who scored a hat-trick, guides the ball past Liverpool goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek.
Thierry Henry stopped the rot ravaging Arsenal's season with a match-winning hat-trick as the Gunners twice came from behind to beat Liverpool 4-2 in a dramatic Good Friday clash at Highbury.
The win restored Arsenal's lead over Chelsea at the top of the Premier League to seven points with seven matches left. With Henry in such form, there seems little prospect of his team allowing the title to slip from its grasp now.
But for the brilliant Frenchman, who played only after passing a late fitness test, it might easily have been another painful afternoon for Arsene Wenger's side, whose interest in the FA Cup and Champions League ended in the past week by defeats to Manchester United and Chelsea.
There was better luck for Liverpool's city rival Everton, which took a huge step towards Premier League survival after goals from David Unsworth, Gary Naysmith and Joseph Yobo carried it to a 3-1 home win against Tottenham.
Liverpool was worthy of the 2-1 lead it enjoyed at half-time at Highbury courtesy of Sami Hyypia's early header and the Michael Owen strike that restored the lead after Henry's equaliser.
The French striker was simply irresistible after the interval, starting the move that led to Robert Pires's second equaliser before scoring one of the goals of the season on his way to a hat-trick.
"After 10 minutes of the warm-up, he said he was ready to play and he did quite well," said Wenger with a smile, before underlining the significance of the victory.
"It was a massive result for us after two big disappointments. When you have your back to the wall and you produce the kind of game we had today, it shows there is more about this team than just winning matches."
Wenger came close to suggesting a draw at Newcastle today would be enough to ensure the title returns to Highbury.
"I feel no matter what happens we'll stay in command and if we get a positive result at Newcastle, we'll be in a very strong position."
Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier acknowledged his side had been largely powerless to resist Arsenal's second-half onslaught.
"I feared they would react like a wounded animal and they were simply stunning in the second half," Houllier said. "The way they played, I don't think any team could compete with them."
Ranieri, whose job has been under threat since Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich bought Chelsea last July, said he had discussed his future with his bosses.
"We had a very good meeting and very soon we will know something," Ranieri said.

Ackman Continues Battle with CP Rail

Bill Ackman has been a long dog fight with the current management of CP Rail (CP). It appears that Ackman is showing no signs of retreat as he tries to reshuffle the board of directors.
Ackman has announced Monday that retired Norfolk Southern Corp. vice chairman Stephen Tobias will be presented as an alternative director for the shareholder vote at CP's annual meeting on May 17 in Calgary. As can be expected, CP is backing an incumbent team of 15 directors. Ackman has presented shareholders with seven alternatives.
"My nearly 40 years of railroad operations experience enable me to make a real contribution to this project," said Mr. Tobias in a statement. "I am excited about this opportunity to help unlock the enormous potential of a railroad as historic and iconic as the Canadian Pacific Railway. One can't overemphasize the importance of a culture of execution at a railroad."
Mr. Ackman acquired a 14.2-per-cent stake in CP last fall and it is currently the largest holding of his fund. Ackman views CP as wildly inefficient with a top heavy management team. In fact, CP is often voted the least efficient railway in North America.

text: Anyone knows this tv series? I have fallen in love with this quirky little show. There are so many crime series on tv that uses all sorts of fantastic tecnology to solve crime. CSI, NCIS,Criminal Minds for example comes to mind. That it is refreashing to find a series that goes in the opposite direction for a change. However I like Peter Outerbridge who played the detective in the tv movies was better. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murdoch_Mysteries

Since I'm re-starting after a 50 year hiatus, I built 3 Langs figuring that was the way to go. After connecting with a local gentleman with a 50 years history of keeping bees, he asked me to explore/experiment with a TBH.
Attachment 6238
These bees came from a wild swarm 5 weeks ago, about 5 miles away from me. This is the first hive I had with a window and I can see where it'll get used.
Attachment 6239
They have drawn out at least a 3rd
Attachment 6240
They are bringing in loads of pollen and nectar, the very late spring in this area has helped with trying to get this swarm settled. Honey already in the new comb.
