YOUR best friend tells you she's engaged. Do you (1) hug her, bring out the champagne and throw yourself enthusiastically into the wedding plans, or (2) let your true feelings emerge? That is to say, widen your eyes in horror, shriek ''Are you kidding?'' (while making plans to eliminate the unwelcome intruder) and -- a more polite form of murder -- make fun of her engagement ring?
Strikingly, this viperish tactic has appeared not once but twice on the screen in recent years: first in Nicole Holofcener's 1996 film ''Walking and Talking,'' when Catherine Keener guffaws over her best friend Anne Heche's hand-crafted token of betrothal, and again in a very funny episode of HBO's ''Sex and the City,'' when Samantha almost faints from fashion shock at the pear-shaped diamond that Aidan has given to Carrie.
I can't divulge the lengths to which another best friend goes in ''Crush,'' the witty new British film about a trio of single women in their 40's. But it's enough to say that when the prim headmistress played by Andie MacDowell falls head over knickers for a former student, her doctor pal (Anna Chancellor) goes lethal trying to sabotage the relationship. Indeed, this female buddy comedy, written and directed by John McKay, ceases to be a comedy and almost doesn't recover from the consequences of the friend's machinations.
But -- miraculously -- it does, and before the last-minute redemption and reconciliation, the film brings to the surface the dirty little secret of female solidarity that is rarely touched upon, not just in movies but in life. That is the rivalry, the jealousy, the ferocious fear of abandonment that underlie our support of one another. The fact that as we sit around giggling and gossiping and talking about men, urging each other into or out of this or that affair, on some level the last thing we really want is for one of us to find true bliss, ''forsaking all others'' in the cruel and terrifying words of the marriage ceremony.Continue reading the main story
But with that glimpse of the down-and-dirty side of female relationships comes an awareness of its opposite, an intimacy so special that it requires all the resources and propaganda of romance to wean us from the feeling of irreplaceable loss that marriage represents.
Female buddy pictures are not exactly a staple of movies, contemporary or otherwise. From the beginning of cinematic time, we've had male bonding films in every wrinkle and permutation. There was Howard Hawks's prototypical ''A Girl in Every Port'' of 1928, in which the sailor played by Robert Armstrong says about his fellow seaman, Victor McLaglen, ''That big ox means more to me than any woman'' (this referring to the gorgeous and decidedly non-oxlike Louise Brooks).
We've had cowboy buddies like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the rash of interracial cop duos of the last two decades, the mutually adoring mobster fraternities of Coppola and Scorsese, men at war taking the bullet for their fellow soldiers, and coming-of-age pictures that generally focus on how two high school wise guys joke and fumble their way into their sexual initiation, the sex being secondary to the conspiracy of yuks.
But the female version has been restricted to a few oddities: the runaway avengers in ''Thelma and Louise,'' the comically angry ex-spouses of ''The First Wives Club,'' the teenage meanies of ''Heathers'' and some road movies that all seemed to feature Drew Barrymore. The amusing lesbian courtship of ''Kissing Jessica Stein,'' now in theaters, suggests that younger women may have a more relaxed perspective on the fluidity of female relationships. At the moment, if there is one girlie group that is flailing and wisecracking its way into the spotlight, it's the thirtyish ''singletons'' in the Bridget Jones mode.
Rare indeed is a movie that portrays the anxieties and the joys of single women in their 40's as John McKay's ''Crush'' does. The film sees them both truthfully and romantically, as ever so slightly ravaged, a little more desperate than their younger counterparts, but still beautiful, still in the game. Even rarer is the movie that penetrates the surface of that camaraderie and looks unblinkingly at its darker side.
''Crush,'' which opens on Wednesday in New York and Los Angeles, takes Andie MacDowell, who is 43, back to Britain in another rural setting. (Remember when she abandoned Hugh Grant in ''Four Weddings and a Funeral'' to marry the Scotsman amid baronial splendor?) Here she plays a sort of Jekyll-and-Hyde role that finally captures her peculiar daffy-chic appeal. You have to go back to ''Sex, Lies and Videotape'' (1989) to find that teasingly contradictory mix in her: the shy, well-brought-up Southern girl, ladylike to a fault, but with a saucy look in her eye and a passionate nature waiting to be unleashed.
As Kate, the spinsterish head of a proper British prep school, Ms. MacDowell wears unflattering clothes and thick stockings but lets her hair down each week with the vixenish, thrice-married Molly (Ms. Chancellor) and the relentlessly peppy Janine (Imelda Staunton, playing a divorced, small-town cop). These are dames who make up for the hole in their love lives with weekly jam sessions of smoking, drinking and getting high on the British equivalent of Twinkies. Who would give up, without a fight or a bout of depression, such joyous commingling -- the pigging out, the bad jokes, the good jokes, the let-it-all-hang-out camaraderie of women who in each other's company still think of one another as ''girls.''
Given the libidinous girl talk, there's something out of character and out of date in the outrage they express over Kate's affair with a much younger man, a sexy organist. Her lover, Jed, is deemed unsuitable by the cultured middle-class standards of her friends, but the tension his social awkwardness produces is overplayed. How come no one seems to notice that this supposedly boobish swain, portrayed by a newcomer, Kenny Doughty, is drop-dead desirable on any turf? Mr. Doughty's Jed doesn't seem to know yet just how attractive he is. His Jed is the unspoiled Adonis, the latterday Lawrentian ideal -- passionate and he can fix things! -- that every woman yearns for. The real problem, of course, is that Kate and Jed fall for each other in a love so unbridled that it excludes the friends in a way a tamer marriage to their preferred suitor, a sweet vicar played by Bill Paterson, would never do.
Beneath the friends' vendetta lies a sense of bereavement, that hollow in the pit of the stomach that comes from seeing your best friend in a wedding dress, a rapt smile on her face, forgetting your existence. The two sisters in Anita Brookner's 1999 novel, ''Falling Slowly,'' simply stop going to weddings because of the ''disappearance of confidantes.'' At least they have each other. But what about the childhood friends, the surrogate siblings, played by Ms. Keener and Ms. Heche in that seriously underrated gem ''Walking and Talking''?
We first see them as pre-teenagers, lying on a bed, poring and gagging over X-rated pictures. They then become adults who share not only an apartment but every aspect of their lives. Similarly, the quartet of young women in HBO's ''Sex and the City'' are each other's family, a chorus of enthusiasm, support and occasional scolding. When Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) tells her friends that she's engaged, Samantha (Kim Cattrall) comes out with an unprintable expletive, then says, ''If you're going to ruin our lives, at least . . .'' The implication is, choose a man who can choose the right ring.
For all the griping and bemoaning in the single-woman genre about the dearth and elusiveness of men, of affairs gone south, one has to wonder if the commitment-phobes and Mr. Wrongs that women gravitate to aren't, at least unconsciously, a way of postponing the moment of decision, both dreaded and longed for, which will bring with it a whole host of other decisions and lifelong responsibilities. Do I want to have a child? How much of myself do I allocate for this, for that? How dedicated will I be to my career? All of this, knowing that whatever the choices, something that is enmeshed in the friendships of women will be lost forever: an easy confidence, a relaxation of the vigil of looking our best, a different and freer way of measuring time.
Moreover, in an era of divorce, with the demystification of romance, in a world where the term ''love everlasting'' has no place, the dreams of a Perfect Soulmate are harder to sustain. Carrie ponders: ''How do you know when it's not right . . . perhaps there are no right guys, right moments, right answers.''
When Ms. Keener's Amelia and Ms. Heche's Laura finally have it out, Amelia says: ''You're only concerned with your own happiness. You don't want to know what it's like for me.''
Laura replies, ''What is it like for you?''
Amelia, pausing: ''Hard.''
Laura: ''Me, too.''
The characters and the films that address that knowledge don't deserve to be dismissed as ''chick flicks.'' These pictures carry a darker and more subversive message that belies the idea of boy-girl romance as the pot of gold and marriage as the fulfillment of every woman's destiny.
INTIMACY among women may get no respect, but that in itself could be a testament to the power of that most primal and complicated of all relationships. Even in that venerable genre, the ''woman's film'' of the 30's and 40's, where love and sacrifice, grief and lamentation were the order of the day (hence the term ''weepers'') and women's friendships took precedence (and star power) over the men who stoked their rivalry, the mourning was over the deaths or departures of men and children, never each other.
We may abandon our female friends when a ''better'' (i.e., male) offer comes along, as once we spurned our too-familiar mothers for our more glamorous fathers, but in the end, these friendships abide. And how many and varied they are! You walk into any tea room or cafe and you see women in a huddle, talking intensely. They might be old college friends, godmother and goddaughter, mentor and acolyte, lesbians, single women, one married and the other not, and any of a hundred other combinations. Of women and the ties that bind them there are a million stories, but who tells them? A few quirky independent or European films. The Hollywood mainstream, the guys in the game of pitching and financing movies, aren't interested.Continue reading the main story

The Dead Don't SpeakMature
They stepped into the lobby, looking at the room within the eerily narrow beams their headlamps provided.
"We should find the power," Michael suggested.
"We don't have enough time. Let's just make sure everything's still intact. You lead since you've been here before."
"Alright, let's go to the sphere first then," said Michael just before he stepped off to the right.
The two traveled down dark corridors. They passed doors left ajar, a reminder that the occupants had evacuated in a hurry. Suddenly Michael stopped dead as John came up to his side, his weapon at the ready.
"What is it?" he asked, his answer being the skeletal remains in the corridor up ahead.
"I guess they didn't all make it out," Michael said.
John's brow wrinkled as the gears of his mind began spinning. "There's no reason they should have left anyone behind," John said, walking up to the decayed corpse. He looked it over, and felt the cold grip of despair around his heart when he noticed the hole in the skull, the edges of the bone sharply fractured.
"Is that a skirt?" Michael asked.
"Yes, this was a woman and she didn't die of natural causes. Someone beat her over the head until her skull collapsed."
"I don't know Michael, but I would love to find out. Right now though, I have living people to worry about. We need to keep moving."
Michael agreed by walking past him and continuing down the corridor. He stopped again when his memory jarred him. He looked through an open door to see the gurney he'd known all too well. He wondered if anyone else ever suffered in its grip, then shoved the thought deep into his mind and continued forward.
The two traveled through snaking corridors and eventually emerged into a large circular room. Above, on a second level there was an observation lounge, reminding Michael how much of a guinea pig he had truly been. He wondered what they thought, watching the shell of a man, barely able to remember his own name, stumble into their multimillion dollar investment to disappear.
What a parlor trick it must have been.
"Michael, is this it?"
Michael focused on the bowl at the center of the room, its familiar hexagonal shapes as the building blocks of its form. "Yeah, this is it."
"Jesus, what happened here?" John asked, looking at the skeletons that were strewn about the room with no rhyme or reason.
A sudden vibration caused both of them to glare upward into dust falling from the ceiling. They stood there looking up as if they could see through the hundreds of meters of dirt to the surface. Another thud reverberated through the room and without speaking a word they both sprinted in the direction they had come, clamoring over railings and stumbling over the bones of the dead.

You can't implement cputime rlimit entirely in user code. You need support from the system -- either in terms of an actual setrlimit() call, in terms of a virtual itimer, or in terms of getrusage()... and if you've got one of the latter two you probably also have resource limits. If NT doesn't have that stuff then tough. They probably put it in 5.0 though, since they had to put in pretty much all of the unix functionality that 25+ years of experience has said is a Good Thing. rlimits pose problems because of how you're told that you've run over them. RLIMIT_DATA, RLIMIT_AS -- depending on the unix you'll either get a SIGSEGV/SIGBUG or a malloc() failure. If you get a malloc() failure you at least have the opportunity to report it. But decoding a SIGBUS failure is a real pain. Single Unix doesn't mention the sigsegv thing, but it does happen in reality, Linux and IRIX for example can easily cause this due to optimistic memory allocation. RLIMIT_STACK -- According to single unix you'll get a SIGSEGV. That's quite humourous, how is it going to set up your stack frame when you've gone over the limit? heh. RLIMIT_CPU -- you're supposed to get a SIGXCPU. But single unix doesn't mention what happens if you continue processing on receipt of SIGXCPU. Under Linux it sends you SIGXCPU every second after you're above the limit. It's not at all unreasonable for us to do something with RLIMIT_CPU -- however we'd have to call setrlimit() and getrusage() once per hit to do it right. There's nothing for us to decode on a SIGXCPU, we just terminate the request in progress like timeout() does. I doubt we should bother with RLIMIT_DATA and RLIMIT_AS. I think we should implement my pool counting suggestion instead... it saves syscalls and lets us control when we barf out a lot easier. Otherwise we'd have to be able to distinguish between regular SIGSEGVs and SIGSEGVs caused by optimistic allocation on unixes supporting that.

SSBp1 deletion results in increased chromosomal aberrations and localizes to telomeres and participate in the repair of uncapped telomeres.
overexpression of Mitogenin I (show POLDIP2 Antibodies) or mitochondrial single-stranded DNA-binding protein (show RPA1 Antibodies) increased elongated or fragmented mitochondria in mouse C2C12 myoblast cells, respectively.
The stimulatory effect of mtSSB on Pol gamma (show POLG Antibodies) on these ssDNA templates is not species-specific.
This study determined that hSSB1 acetylation at K94 mediated by the acetyltransferase p300 and the deacetylases SIRT4 and HDAC10 impaired its ubiquitin-mediated degradation by proteasomes.
SSBP1 protects cells from proteotoxic stresses by potentiating stress-induced HSF1 (show HSF1 Antibodies) transcriptional activity
Fbxl5 (show FBXL5 Antibodies) interacts with and targets hSSB1 for ubiquitination and degradation, which could be prevented by ATM (show ATM Antibodies)-mediated hSSB1 T117 phosphorylation.
In response to the DNA damage response, INTS3 (show INTS3 Antibodies)-hSSB1-INTS6 (show INTS6 Antibodies) complex relocates to the DNA damage sites.
Results indicate that hSSB1 may regulate DNA damage checkpoints by positively modulating p53 (show TP53 Antibodies) and its downstream target p21 (show CDKN1A Antibodies).
mtSSB potentially prevents formation of DNA breaks in ssDNA, ensuring that base removal primarily occurs in dsDNA.
Local enrichment of UNG1 (show UNG Antibodies) at DNA-bound mtSSB may furthermore facilitate rapid access to- and processing of the damage once the dsDNA conformation is restored.
mtSSB uses distinct structural elements to interact functionally with its mtDNA replisome partners and to promote proper mtDNA replication in animal cells
hSSB1 may positively modulate p21 (show CDKN1A Antibodies) to regulate cell cycle progression and DNA damage response, implicating hSSB1 as a novel, promising therapeutic target for cancers such as hepatocellular carcinoma

Schönes Haus auf einem halben Morgen mit einem großen eingezäunten Garten und einen schönen Pool. Das Haus verfügt über einen Kamin, 3 Schlafzimmer und 2 Badezimmer. Das Haus wurde komplett im Jahr 2014 mit allen neuen Geräten und Möbeln renoviert.
Das Haus liegt in einer ruhigen Straße in Vero Beach in unmittelbarer Nähe zu Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Restaurants entfernt und nahe dem Strand.
Das Haus hat auch eine große Garage für 2 Autos mit direktem Zugang zum Haus.
We had a great stay. The space met our needs as a family; the kids loved the pool; the screened porch and yard are great; everything inside was new and clean; we enjoyed the quiet neighborhood close to amenities. Our stay in Vero was excellent. Thank you!
We really enjoyed our stay in your modern home. Jane went over and above answering my questions of where to find different items around town for our entertainment. This trip we were celebrating my son's 8th grade graduation and brought 2 other boys with us. The house was spacious enough we could easily enjoy some quiet time reading or relaxing by the pool. The house was well stocked with every day essentials and if we needed anything or had any questions all the numbers were provided in a nice location by the door. We will absolutely stay in the house again next year and even debated if we could squeeze another week in this year. Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in your lovely home. Carmen
This home was a great find in the awesome seaside city of Vero beach..We really did enjoy our stay. It was very clean, comfortable and centrally located to beaches, Parks, Theater, Museum and some really great restaurants. It exceeded all our expectations.
Home had new appliances, new bathrooms and new furniture so everything was very clean.
Kitchen was well stocked with needed items.
Sheets, blankets and towels were in very good shape.
Owner was very easy to reach.
However, the futon in the office was only suitable for one small child, not adults or older children. Would be great to have a real bed (even twin) in that room!
And the queen bed needed a mattress pad.
Our family stayed for an extended time. The kids loved having the pool. The backyard is large, fenced in and private. Its a quiet neighborhood with hardly any traffic. It's located close to downtown Vero. We enjoyed shopping, art shows, dinning out and the beach. The owners were great! They were very helpful with any questions. I recommend this property to families or anyone looking for a private relaxing stay.
My family and I enjoyed our stay at this nice home during our vacation. Everything we needed was at the house. The house was conveniently located to everything needed (shopping, beach, parks, dinning..........).
Not to forget the landlord is a wonderful person.
Jane Thank you.

Horse Farm in Kentucky
Beautiful horse farms have been part of the Bluegrass since the region was first settled.
Early 19th-century travelers remarked on the beautiful country estates of the Bluegrass noting, as one put it, "a handsome horse is the highest pride of a Kentuckian."
When great 20th-century Thoroughbred Man o' War retired to stud in the Bluegrass, visitors from around the world flocked to see him. Man o' War's groom, Will Harbut, kept ledgers for visitors to sign. When Man o' War died in 1947, there were 63 ledgers containing over 1.3 million names.
Ready to do your part to uphold this great Bluegrass tradition?
Visiting a horse farm while you're in town is a uniquely Bluegrass kind of experience you'll long remember. And it's easier than you might think.
There are about 450 horse farms in the region (about 150 in Lexington/Fayette County alone). They're all working farms— which means you should never just "drop by" —but more than a few allow visitors by appointment or through arrangements with professional tour companies.
Blue Note: Horse breeding has been an important Bluegrass industry since the area was first settled. Daniel Boone himself introduced a bill for "improving the breed of horses" at Kentucky's first legislative assembly.
Here's how you can revisit racing history, see the world's most fabulous farms and barns, get up-close-and-personal with Kentucky Derby winners, or discover an exciting variety of horse breeds.
There are three ways to visit a horse farm:
You can reserve a seat on a regular guided group tour; Hire a private guide to conduct a custom tour; or Hoof-it-yourself by calling farms and asking for an appointment.
Guided Tour: A Quick and Easy Overview
If your interest is general and your time limited— or if you're shy about calling a horse farm on your own— consider taking a regular guided group tour. The itinerary is planned by the tour company to offer an overview of Lexington and its horse farms. Many farms allow visitors only through tour companies.
On the other hand, three hours on and off a bus is probably not the best option for those with restless youngsters. And since horse farms may be just a small part of the itinerary, ask in advance what the tour will include to see if it has enough horse stops to satisfy your interest.
Although offered daily most of the year, reservations are still needed for the tours. Make them as far in advance as possible since tours sell out, especially during peak visitor times.
Customized Tours:
If you like to travel at your own pace, have specific farms, horses and attractions you want to see— or want the added allure of "insider" knowledge and access— you can hire a private guide for a custom tour.
This is the luxurious way to go. Most private tour companies have access to a wide variety of farms not open to groups or do-it-yourself tours. You can make pit stops or photo stops as often as you like. And your guide should entertain you with all kinds of fascinating facts, legends and lore.
As you might expect, private, custom tours cost more than guided group tours but may turn out to be a somewhat comparably priced alternative if you have more than a few people in your family or group. In most cases, custom tours are offered as a "step-on service" — the guide joins you in your vehicle. Some companies will provide transportation, especially for groups.
What you'll pay for a custom tour can vary widely depending upon the tour company, the length and content of the tour, the number in your party, and whether you use their transportation or yours. Minimum prices recently quoted ranged from $75 to $150 for a two or three hour tour for a few people.
Booking Your Own Visits
If you're the independent type or short on time and just want to visit one farm, doing it on your own is a perfectly acceptable and enjoyable option. Farms don't charge admission (although a tip is customary if a farm representative spends time showing you around).
A number of farms— from Thoroughbred showplaces to smaller farms specializing in a range of other horse breeds— welcome individual tourists, families and other small groups. Policies vary from farm to farm, but usually there's no great trick to getting in. Just follow the first commandment of horse farm sightseeing:
Thou shalt call first .
While it can be said with absolute surety that no farm in the Bluegrass welcomes unexpected guests, other visitor policies will vary from time to time and may vary from season to season.
Some farms allow visitors only on certain days or limit tours at certain times of year such as breeding season (February through mid-July), Kentucky Derby time, during the horse sales, or during race meets. Most likely, you'll need to check in at the farm office first. Some farms allow you to get out and tour the barns; others allow drive-through visits only.
Some horses may not be on view to visitors, so if you're hoping to see a particular horse, inquire about its status in advance.
Don't feel intimidated if your knowledge or interest isn't that specialized. Most visitors aren't quite that savvy; they just want to see the world's most beautiful horses and horse farms. Need we say that you've come to the right place?
Blue Note: Here are some horse farm visit basics, no matter how or when you visit. You can take pictures.
You can take your children, but you should, for their own safety, keep a close rein on them. (And only you can decide if they are ready to hear an often-detailed description of how horses breed; those adult tourists ask the darnedest questions!)
Wear comfortable clothes and sturdy shoes.
No feeding or petting the horses. Horse personalities, like human temperaments, vary widely. They may bite or kick.
The farms just look like parks….no picnics.
You won't be able to sit on or ride the horses.
Thoroughbred Farms:
Most of the living Kentucky Derby Winners are retired to Bluegrass farms. Here are the homes of living Derby winners that allow tourists. If you want to tour just one farm or several, the following are some excellent choices:
Three Chimneys Farm, located on Old Frankfort Pike in Woodford County, west of Lexington. Though not as steeped in tradition as some farms (founded in 1972, it's relatively new), this Thoroughbred farm has everything you'd expect to see on one of the world's finest horse farms. There are beautifully manicured grounds and impressive barns. Famous residents include 2001 Horse of the Year Point Given. Tours are given year-round, Tuesdays through Saturdays at 1:00 p.m. A farm representative gives a guided tour of the stallion complex, breeding shed and mare receiving barn. Tour size is limited, so call well in advance for reservations, especially if you plan to visit in April or October. Derby week books up months in advance. Smarty Jones continues to create quite a stir! Call ahead for information. (859) 873-7053
Ashford Stud , near Versailles (859-873-7088), is home to 2000 Derby winner Fusaichi Pegasus as well as 1995 Derby winner Thunder Gulch and will show their majestic stallions by appointment. Like a growing number of stallions, many of Ashford Stud's travel to the Southern hemisphere after the Kentucky breeding season ends, so they may not be at home July through January.
While the following farms may not have a Kentucky Derby winner, they have their own unique history as well as lavish barns and landscaping.
Normandy Farm is famous for its unusual L-shaped barn. Commissioned in 1933 by then-owner Joseph Widener as an exact replica of a barn in Normandy, France, where he sought refuge after his plane crashed during World War I, the barn features a clock tower. Its roof, gables, cupolas and dormers are adorned with ceramic cats and other animals. The farm also includes an interesting cemetery, in which a life-size bronze statue of Thoroughbred champion Fair Play overlooks the graves of Fair Play and Mahubah, sire and dam of Man o' War. Tours by appointment only, Monday through Friday.
Taylor Made Farm. Taylor Made Farm was created in 1976 to provide care for mares shipped to central Kentucky to be bred to stallions standing here. The Farm, which began as 120 acres, has expanded its scope and its acreage. It has grown to over 1,600 acres and is now one of the leading sales agencies in the world. In 1999, three Taylor Made graduates won races at the Breeder's Cup--a feat unparalleled in racing history. Northern Afleet and Unbridled Song are among the top stallions in residence. During breeding season in the spring the farm is extremely busy and they may not be able to accommodate visitors.
Blue Note: The Center for Women in Racing at Bethlehem Farm near Paris can provide a unique hands on experience with one of their retired race horses. Donations go to help the women and horses in their program.
Champions in Retirement:
What happens to our Thoroughbred stars when they begin to fade on the race track or in the breeding shed? "Old Friends" is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a dignified and comfortable retirement home for racing's elite. Based at Dream Chase Farm near the Kentucky Horse Park. "Old Friends" offers free daily tours for an up-close encounter with great champions. Meet Hall of Fame Champion Precisionist, Eclipse Award winner Sunshine Forever and mulitple Grade One winners Ruhlmann, Ogygian and Special Ring. Celebrity horse Popcorn Deelites, who was cast in the movie Seabiscuit, also resides at Old Friends.
Blue Note: A more expanded listing of farms, along with histories of some leading farms, can be found in the book Horse Farms and Horse Tales of the Bluegrass by Wilma Beale, available at local bookstores.
Horses of All Types:
You may think that a horse farm is a horse farm is a horse farm, but it just isn't so. Most farms specialize in a specific breed of horse.
Most Bluegrass farms are Thoroughbred operations, breeding and training horses primarily for racing. Kentucky produces more Thoroughbreds than any other state. But you can also see many other kinds of horses in the "Horse Capital of the World."
American Saddlebreds, used for show and pleasure riding, are Kentucky's only native breed of horse. Saddlebred farms that allow visitors by appointment include Werkway Stables. At the American Saddlebred Museum, adjacent to the Kentucky Horse Park, you can get a listing of Saddlebred farms in your home state.
Come out and watch the horses being worked at Watermark Farm located at the corner of Russell Cave and Ironworks Pike. At this breeding and training facility you'll find Hackney Horses and Hackney Ponies as well as American Saddlebreds.
For a friendly visit with Morgan horses, America's first breed of horse, visit Bonnie and Fred Neuville's Burr Oak Farm in Scott County. The Morgan horse sprang from a single stallion raised in Vermont in the late 1700's.
Blue Note: On December 6, 2005, Kentucky was awarded the 2010 World Equestrian Games. All events will be held at Lexington's own Kentucky Horse Park. This extraordinary event will attract approximately 300,000 visitors. This is the first time the competition has ever been held in North America. Click here for information about the FEI Games.
The Kentucky Horse Park. It's not just a State Park, it's a working horse farm, too! And much, much more. The 1,200 acres that comprise the Kentucky Horse Park have served as an active horse farm since the 18th century.
Featuring more than 50 breeds of horse at work and play, the Park features a variety of equine presentations along with horse drawn tours and carriage rides. The park is home to The International Museum of the Horse and the American Saddle Horse Museum and hosts a multitude of prestigious equine events throughout the year.
In 2010, the Kentucky Horse Park will host the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games. Expected to draw around 300,000 people, this is the first time this event has ever been held outside of Europe.
Activities at the Kentucky Horse Park will educate and entertain the entire family. The Park is open seven days a week from March 15 to October 31 (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.). During the winter the Park is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
Blue Note: Call the Lexington Convention and Visitors Bureau and ask for the Lexington Walk and Bluegrass Country Driving Tour map. One side is a walking tour of historic downtown Lexington. The other side is a scenic loop around Lexington with suggested side trips. These self-guided tours are designed to be followed at your own pace and can be adapted to your own schedule.

French Eclectic
The French Eclectic style is not just one style, but rather a range of styles inspired by French architecture. Brought back to America by World War I soldiers returning home, it evolved into a very Americanized interpretation of the character and charm of the French countryside.
Essential Style Elements
- Shallow-pitched roofs with deep overhangs and exposed rafter tails at the eave overhang
- Decorative brackets at the rake overhang
- Deep, broad porch elements with expressive structural components such as rafters, brackets and columns
- A mixture of materials such as brick, shingles and siding
Quintessential Windows
A wide variety of window types are seen within the French Eclectic style. However, casement windows are the leading choice, while double-hung windows are also acceptable. Additionally, arched top windows are common and add a wonderful French countryside charm. Regardless of the type of window, shutters are often used and play a large role in the appearance of many French Eclectic style homes.
Quintessential Doors
The term "French Door" is often defined as any door unit consisting of two door panels, with at least one of the two panels being operable. While this type of door is common in all locations for French Eclectic style homes, single doors are also popular, especially at the main entrance. Whether it's a double or a single door, the look of the door panels ranges from old-world rustic to formal, and even slightly contemporary. The most common main door features a segmented arch, although half-round arched or fl at top doors also fi t the style. Segmented arches and half-round arches are more appropriate for rustic designs such as homes with towers. Rectangular shapes are more common in formal-looking homes. Auxiliary side entrances are usually single doors with glazing comprising 1/3 to 3/4 of the door. Auxiliary patio doors are most often hinged double doors with either 3/4 glazing or full glazing.
French Eclectic style window colors range from white to a variety of earthy browns. Window frames and sash are typically the same color, while the window trim may either match the window color or be a complementary, contrasting color. The home's siding is generally a light-colored stone or stucco.
Color Combinations

Program 2
Side by Side Educational Initiative
Throughout the school year, Heartland partners with area high school and collegiate choral music programs for a nine-week period, during which time members of the Chorale work 'side by side' with students to prepare for an upcoming concert. Students will be mentored by the Singers of the Chorale where they will experience professional-level preparation, rehearsals, and work ethic.
Heartland also auditions area students to perform with them on various subscription concerts. Graduates of this program have gone on to earn advanced degrees in vocal performance and to join professional choruses in other areas. Currently there are two singers in the ensemble who graduated from this intensive one on one side by side program.
The goal of this educational initiative is to demonstrate the value of singing, provide in-depth contact with professional performers who witness to the power of music and the vocal arts, and to give encouragement to students to preserve the art form as amateur or professional singers.
Program long term success
Our Side-by-Side in Song high school partnership was launched in 2002. The program is divided into two tracts. Tract one focuses on the individual student, and involves citywide auditions of high school choristers for the opportunity to sing with Heartland during part of its regular season. This opportunity to work as a musician involves attending regular rehearsals, singing in performances, and being paid for their talents just as Heartland's members are. Tract two focuses on select choruses from underserved constituencies, partnering members of Heartland with student choristers to prepare concert programs. Heartland singers mentor students, while students experience professional-level preparatory processes. The teaching professionals of the adopted school and the Heartland professionals benefit from collegial interaction.

Students will gain self-esteem through performing at a higher musical level than might otherwise be afforded them. They will learn professional concert preparation processes, further their ability to work as a member of a team, develop musical skills, and interact with professional musicians. We expect to reach 10 students through the career opportunities offered in tract one and 300 students through the professional ensemble experience offered in tract two. Students will have increased self-awareness and social skills within a professional setting. Tract one students will be inspired to follow music as a career path. We will see these students at future concerts with their parents by distributing two complimentary tickets to a Heartland Concert (tickets will be specially coded for measured results).
Side-by-Side meets four of the nine National Standards for Music Education developed by the National Association for Music Education for the US Department of Education.

Program 3
Heartland Vocal Arts Institute
Heartland Vocal Arts Institute (HVAI) is an educational outreach program designed to comprehensively teach young singers about the vocal arts. Presented in numerous one or two-day seminars leading up to several multi-week intensives, the HVAI endeavors to give students experiences in the following ways: voice lessons, masterclasses, cross-genre training, mock auditions, movement, and information sessions on topics ranging from diction to vocal anatomy. By the end of each program, students will be familiar with classical, choral, musical theater, a cappella, and jazz singing. A strong focus on fundamental vocal technique and vocal health will prepare students for proficiency in all of these genres. Students will also learn about professions in the vocal arts, from arts administration to full-time performance. HVAI also includes performances by the students and typically ends with a professional performance side-by-side with Heartland Vocal Artists.
The HVAI is directed by Heartland Sings Artistic Staff, including Artistic Director Robert Nance, Associate Director Patricia Kennedy, and a combination of the full-time and part-time professional vocal artists from the company. Heartland Vocal Artists were selected in part because of their versatility; they are all classically trained (with degrees ranging from Bachelor to Doctoral) and have mastered all of the genres taught at the HVAI.

Program 4
Everybody Sing!
The "Everybody Sing" initiative is Heartland's educational outreach program for children grades K-5. This program emphasizes singing as a language of communication that deepens one's understanding of the meaning of words. Our goal is to deliver an experience that shows how music deepens one's understanding of another person. The program is closely aligned with four of Indiana's educational standards and allows students to interact with the singers by adding rhythmic accompaniments, singing with the group, and discussing the music. Teachers have found that the program has lasting impact upon their students and have appreciated the opportunity to have their students engaged in a meaningful experience such as this.
By introducing children to the value of singing, and singing music from various cultures, Everybody Sing provides needed early-age exposure to choral music. It is a culturally enriching program involving the art of song, which helps each student understand his or her own self-emotion and appreciate the importance of working together in community. During each presentation, Heartland singers perform for and interact with the students. Singers ask the students to interpret what they have heard. Not only are they listening to the words and pulling meaning from language, but they also are asked to concentrate on musical elements such as tone quality and dynamic level that convey meaning and allow for emotional interpretation. The ability to understand emotional meaning leads students to a deeper perception of their own emotional state. Once students have seen a demonstration of how music can lead to understanding their internal emotions, they are asked to join the professional singers (in front of their peers) and portray some of those emotions themselves. As they stand and sing with the professionals, students learn how each voice is unique unto itself and also is accountable to the whole of the chorus. This interplay of self and community is one of the foundations of choral music.
Heartland is always seeking opportunities to share this program with area schools. Visits are generally free to schools, particularly in at-risk neighborhoods; the initiative is funded with modest grants from donors and area foundations and is ongoing throughout the year until funding is depleted. If you would like to schedule a visit for your school, or if you would like to support Heartland's educational initiatives, please contact Maestro Nance at firstname.lastname@example.com, or call Heartland's office at 260.436.8080

Five powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
Heartland Sings, Inc. is headquartered in Fort Wayne, Indiana. We principally serve Northeast Indiana and the region expanding out 225-miles from Fort Wayne. When touring, we serve various locations throughout the United States.
Funding Needs
Heartland Sings is a company of professional vocal artists and ensembles. Funding comes from donors that we call "Member Supporters", from ticket sales to concerts and a sundry of products like recordings, special events, educational programming, lessons, and more. The Heartland performs special contract concerts throughout the season and serves a 225-mile radius of Fort Wayne, Indiana. Most of our educational services are provided to area students for little or no cost. We regularly request support from grantors and foundations to underwrite the costs of providing educational programming. Studies have shown for years that exposure to and participation in choral singing promote excellence in education, produce better citizenry and represent vibrant communities that grow. Our mission includes serving as an educational resource, but more importantly to advocate for music and music education because of its clearly beneficial role in the community. Educational funding is our top priority. Heartland is also in need of a building to provide services and to rehearse, record and perform. A building is a significant part of our strategic business plan and is a key to our long-term sustainability as a revenue producing non-profit company. Our goal is to transition from a donor dependent organization with only 15% earned income to a revenue producing company with 70% earned income, reserving the remaining 30% donor income to support educational programming.

Over and out <3
I can't just keep loving you.
For NO obvious cause,
You met me halfway,
changed my life for the better.
And here,
you leave me.
All on my own again?
Exaggeration doesn't make sense
why else,
would I tackle the truth?
Of course, very now shall I vow?
Your absence won't make any sense
in my being.
It's alright.
You'll have your explanations.
Err, excuses.
As forever!
But now,
I won't fall victim
its over.
Because it never was.
And the iron is crimson hot.
As it never was.
Let's smack it!
If you ever recognize,
if you EVER do.
Won't make any difference.
Fair enough!
I'm over you.

Setting your status
The status feature of 3CX Phone System allows you to show other users your current status and to have your calls handled accordingly.
For example if you are in a meeting, you can set your status to 'Away' and use a custom status – for example "Away-Business trip". While your status is set to anything except Available, calls can be automatically diverted to another extension or to your voice mail as defined in your preferences. You can configure what should happen when you set a particular status from the MyPhone 'Forwarding Rules' page.
Available statuses
Your 3CX Phone System status could be any of the following:
- Available – you are at your desk and available to take calls.
- Away – generally used when you are away from your desk – i.e. in a meeting or having lunch.
- Out of Office – used when you are physically out of the office.
- Away 2 – a custom away status that you can configure. This is used to define forwarding rules which are different than the Away status.
- Out of Office 2 – a custom out of office status that you can configure, for example if you are on holiday.
You have 3 methods to change your status:
Using 3CX MyPhone
Select the appropriate status using the drop down in the left hand corner next to your name. Your status will be instantly updated and the settings related to this status will kick-in immediately.
You can enter a personal message to be shown along with your status by entering the text you want to be on display into the textbox located to the right of the status drop down list.
By phone
If you do not have internet access, you can call in to your voice mail and change your status. To do this:
- Dial the voice mail extension (by default this is 999).
- Select 9 to go to the options menu.
- Select 1 to change your status.
You can have your status set to Away or Out Of Office automatically. This will be based on your pre-set office hours. To configure this:
- Go to the tab Settings > Extension Details > Actions.
- Tick the option "Automatically Switch my status to "Out of Office" outside of office hours".
- If you are a member of any queues, you can also have 3CX PhoneSystem log you out of these queues. To do this, tick the option "Automatically Log me out of the queues outside of office hours".
- You can automatically switch your status to Away at specific times of the day (e.g. during lunch break). Tick the option "This Extension has Specific Office Hours', and configure your lunch break times by clicking on the button 'Set'.
- If your office hours differ from the general office hours, you can configure specific office hours in the Extension Details tab, Office hour's section.

Rowlett, Texas (The Weekly Vice) Belinda Loveland, a 52-year-old attorney and juvenile court judge for Rowlett, was shot and killed Sunday in an apparent murder-suicide. The woman's son was informed of the murder when his father text messaged him to say "I think I just killed your mother."
According to the Rowlett Police Department, the Lovelands' son, a doctor in Galveston, called 911 after getting a text message from his father, Richard Loveland, that said "I don't know how to tell you this, but I think I just killed your mother."
Investigators say when officers arrived at the Loveland's home and failed to establish contact with anyone inside, they sent in a camera-equipped robot which recorded footage of the two bodies.
When officers went inside, they found Belinda Loveland dead in the master bedroom and her 59-year-old husband, Richard Loveland, dead in the adjacent bathroom.
Authorities conclude it was a murder-suicide.
"It appears that Richard Loveland shot his wife and then turned the gun on himself," the Rowlett Police Department said.
Police are still investigating the case and do not yet know the motive for the shootings.

text: Religion News ServiceUNITED STATES, May, 2012 (RNS): President Obama's recent endorsement of same-sex marriage opened a torrent of speculation on what his newly enunciated position will mean politically, but the latest polls indicate the public largely backs his views and that his stance may not hurt him at the ballot box. A Gallup poll in early May showed that by a 54-42 percent margin, American adults consider gay and lesbian relations "morally acceptable." The level of approval has grown steadily since 2002, when it stood at 38 percent, so much so that Gallup considers the current situation "the new normal" in U.S. public opinion.

It's been several days since 'the kiss' happened and I've been trying to avoid Tom at all costs, but with it being Monday tomorrow this plan is going to come unstuck very soon indeed. Wouldn't be so bad if we weren't best friends. Bloody hell, why am I so fucked up at time? It's about time I acted my age and not like a petulant child. I need to sum up the courage to send a text or call him but I fear it may end in more humiliation for yours truly. I feel like this and we've only been back from Scotland an hour. Jesus, what am I going to be like tomorrow? I slug down the rest of my Rosé and pluck up the courage to send a text, "Sorry about yesterday. We need to talk. X" I thought that was a reasonable text to send, as soon as I pressed send my nerves collapsed into a massive heap.
The next ten minutes became unbearable until a text came through from Tom. My head was telling me to read it but I was afraid of what my heart would feel. The internal battle continued until my head won. It read, "I don't feel sorry and you shouldn't regret it. You are right we need to talk. Can I come over now? Xx". After reading it my heart was pounding, I didn't know what to think, I really don't want to get my hopes up, only for them to come crashing round my ears. I instantly dials Jen's number, she will know what to do. I don't even give her chance to say hello.
"Tom's coming over to discuss the other night. What should I do?" hoping she would give me the answer I was looking for.
"Well, Rach, you have to go with your heart lovely. If you don't you may regret it."
"What happens if I go with my heart but it gets shattered right in front of me?"
"Tom isn't like that. He loves you as a friend, who knows if he loves you as more. You have to do this otherwise he might find someone else"
"Don't say that!" I protest
"Well then, act on your feelings then you have the chance of keeping him" she advised, I wondered where she gets all this advice from, I really do. Maybe its because she had to grow up quickly. Whatever, but all I know is that at this minute she is the voice of reason.
"OK. Well, I will, I suppose. Better tell Tom when to come over"
I shoot Tom a text to say that is now is convenient, get changed into something more, well, revealing, maybe that will sway him. I pour myself a small glass of Rosé, down it and put the bottle away otherwise I'll never stop. Before I know it, there is a knock at the front door, bloody hell had he being waiting outside the house waiting patiently for my reply. Certainly seemed like it at the minute. I casually walked and answered the door, didn't want him thinking I am too keen, well I am, but y'know. I finally muster the courage to say something after standing at the door like a goon.
"Hi, come in, come in, don't just stand there" I usher him inside, I can feel my cheeks going red, how bloody embarrassing.
"Are you ok?" he enquires, "You seem a little … flustered"
"Yeah I'm fine. I'm just nervous. Would you like a drink?" I say, opening the fridge to show what we have.
"Nervous about what?" he asks, he must catch sight of my face, he then catches onto what I mean, "Oh" he says simply
"Yeah, so you see now?"
"Yes" he says positively, "There is nothing to be nervous about" he is getting gradually closer to me, "because I've been thinking about what happened as well, granted, I haven't thought about much else to be honest. Didn't sleep the night it happened. My mind was everywhere"
"You don't have to do this y'know. You don't need to, just to keep me happy"
"I don't have to do anything I don't want too, but I know I want to do this," emphasising the know "I wanted to do this that night, but I was too scared, too afraid of what you might do, but no more."
And with saying that, Tom moved closer to me and put his glass down on the side, just so he could look deep into my eyes. I had wished for this day for so long, I can't really believe it is actually here and I don't really know how to react to be honest. I am a little shorter than Tom, but not to the extreme of Jen and Rory. He cups my face in his hand and brings his head close to mine and our lips touch. They touch so lightly but even still, fireworks explode deep inside me. We are both comfortable with this, so our kiss becomes more passionate and ever so slightly I am raised onto the kitchen counter, just like in the movies. I guess his neck must have been aching. We finally break away from each other, I must have a grin on my face, as Tom breaks the silence with, "You have no idea how long I've been waiting to do that"
"And you have no idea how long I've wished for you to do that, because" I pause, thinking do I really want to say this.
"Because, I think I love you" he smiles at me and kisses me again, signalling the beginning of our love story.

Sheepmeat sector turning the corner according to board chair
NewsMonday 07 October 2013
Charles Sercombe, the NFU livestock board chairman, addressed the International Sheepmeat Forum in Brussels on Friday, stating there was a bright future for the sheep market.
When talking to livestock producers from around the world, Mr Sercombe said that the global sheep market has all of the "right ingredients" for a bright future, but requires a long term view throughout the industry in order to inject confidence.
Mr Sercombe is also the chair of the European Commission Advisory Group on Sheepmeat. He told the delegates at the forum that the sheep industry has faced a torrid 12 months both in the UK and in a number of other countries, however, he is optimistic about the future of the sector.
He said: "Last year's devastating marketing season had a huge effect on our members' businesses and many farms are still feeling the effects.
"It is apparent that many of the issues facing sheep farmers are the same the world over. On the recent sheep industry mission to New Zealand, I met farmers who have faced similar issues as we do in the UK due to sustained poor prices and we discussed the negative impact price volatility is having for sheepmeat producers wherever they farm.
"However, I do believe we are turning the corner. Producer confidence has dipped but all the ingredients are there for a successful season. There will be less lamb on global markets and we're seeing increased demand for lamb, especially from China.
"It's vital that a change in attitude throughout the whole supply chain takes place. Now is the season that our farmers should be seeing the lamb market strengthen and British farmers expect agriculture's biggest customers, the supermarkets, to be fully behind British lamb and working to help create a dynamic, vibrant sheep industry for the future."

Welcome to Cyst~ Part Two
"Yes, of course it exists." I said. "Do you know how to get there?"
"No. No we don't. But you must come with me. Skrybe must be informed."
"Informed of what? Whoa, Hang on!" I yelled as he pulled me up and began pulling me along.
"Informed that one has finally come who knows of Earth. We've been waiting for someone like you for nearly eight thousand years."
If he hadn't have been pulling me along, I would have stopped dead.
"Eight thousand years? You've been alive that long?"
"No, but Skrybe and Monark have. I'm only just pushing six thousand."
"Do you… not age or something?"
He looked at me curiously, "Age? What do yo- Oh… that's right… the process of decomposition in the body on Earth. No. We do not age here."
"Can you die?"
"We cannot die, but we can be killed."
I thought about that for a moment, and decided that it made a certain amount of sense. There wasn't time for an objection anyway. We had come to a small house on the outskirts of the city. Well, where the outskirts of the city would have been, had we been on earth. Cyst appeared to be one large town. Not a city, but a town. Population wise it was a city I suppose, but it just had a towny feel to it. It's a little hard to explain. Cities are closely packed, no space, polluted air, dirty streets, and an overall color of gray. A town was a little more sprawled. There was room to move and stretch, people knew each other, and a thing called nature still existed. That's what this was like.
The house was peculiar. It wasn't made out of steel, wood, or anything that we would consider a building material. It was completely black. Actually, now that I thought about it, all the buildings were black. It wasn't the shiny black of obsidian stone, nor was it the mucky black of years of soot and dirt buildup.
It was just… different.
Guyde knocked on the door, which further confirmed my suspicions of the black substance. The sound it produced was that of a hard substance, but the surface of the door rippled, like it was flexible and could be retailored.
Maybe it could for all I knew.
The door opened and another young man, about as old as Guyde, stuck his head out. I started when I saw eyes, they belayed his youthful appearance with a wealth of knowledge and experience that was reminiscent of all the libraries in the world put together and doubled.
"Ah Guyde! To what do I owe the pleasure? Who might this be? A new arrival?"
Guyde was silent a moment as he seemed to search for the right words to say.
"Skrybe. This man has-… he believes that he-…" he took a deep breath, "Skrybe, he says he is from Earth."
Skrybe looked at me hard for a moment then blinked and realized we were standing outside.
"How careless of me. Please come in where we can discuss your past in greater detail. I don't believe I heard your name."
"My name? Oh! My name is... i-it's.."
How the heck could I have forgotten my own name?!
