Happy Birthday General Banks
Today we honor the birthday of Union General Nathaniel Banks, born Jan 30, 1816 in Waltham, Massachusetts
Banks was a political general with few military skills, but as an anti-slavery Republican from Massachusetts, he helped President Lincoln's administration maintain support in that region.
He was a lawyer,and served in the state legislature, and was speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives. In 1853, Banks was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. From 1858 to 1861,he served as governor of his home state.
When the Civil War began, Banks was commissioned as a general despite his complete lack of military experience. Banks commanded an army in the Shenandoah Valley during Confederate General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson's campaign there in 1862. He suffered two serious defeats to Jackson at Front Royal and Winchester, and his army lost so many supplies that the Confederates began calling him "Commissary Banks." In August, Banks commanded a corps at the Battle of Cedar Mountain, Virginia. He again found himself pitted against Jackson, and again lost to him. Banks was forced to retreat to Washington, D.C.
Banks was then sent to New Orleans to command the Department of the Gulf. In 1863,he managed to capture Port Hudson, a key Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River. His victory was difficult and came with a high price in casualties, but it was the general's first victory of the war. In 1864, Banks commanded the Red River Campaign in northern Louisiana, which turned into a complete Union disaster. He did not command troops in the field again. Banks also managed the reconstruction of Louisiana during the war, and his record in doing so was also suspect. He used the state's antebellum constitution to govern and simply deleted references to slavery, which did little to promote the rights of freed slaves. In fact, Banks actually forced many black "vagrants" back to work on plantations.
After the war, Banks served two more stints in Congress and also spent time as a U.S. marshall. He was serving in Congress when he died in 1894 at age 78.

Emperor Norton the First
On this Sunday, we thought we would visit a little known episode in American history, the reign of Emperor Norton the First, Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico.
The English born Norton came to the US in1849 with a small fortune ( he lost the money investing in rice in Peru ). On September 17, 1859, Norton became the Emperor by publishing a proclamation:
"At the peremptory request and desire of a large majority of the citizens of these United States, I, Joshua Norton, formerly of Algoa Bay, Cape of Good Hope, and now for the last 9 years and 10 months past of San Francisco, California, declare and proclaim myself Emperor of these United States; and in virtue of the authority thereby in me vested, do hereby order and direct the representatives of the different States of the Union to assemble in Musical Hall, of this city, on the 1st day of February next, then and there to make such alterations in the existing laws of the Union as may ameliorate the evils under which the country is laboring, and thereby cause confidence to exist, both at home and abroad, in our stability and integrity.
Norton I.,
Emperor of the United States
17th September, 1859.
On October 12, Norton issued another proclamation abolishing Congress because of "fraud and corruption." When he found out Congress had not been abolished, he ordered Winfield Scott and the army to "clear the halls of Congress." ( Scott did not do this ).
In Summer, 1860, in a move to prevent Civil War, Norton abolished the country altogether. This plan also failed.
For the next 20 years, Norton became a celebrity in San Francisco, earning free meals and issuing Imperial Bonds to raise money. He was listed in a census under the occupation "Emperor". Of course, the census also listed him as insane, so…..
Emperor Norton died on January 8, 1880, when he collapsed at a street corner. He left no plans for succession.
Civil War Prisoner of War Camps
Today we look at a facet of the war that usually is not well publicized: prisoner of war camps.
Initially, captured troops from both sides were usually paroled, on the promise to not return to combat. However a formal exchange system set up in 1862, lasted less than a year.
On the Confederate side, captured Union soldiers were first housed in warehouses and barns. The cessation of exchanges in 1863 resulted in a massive increase in the number of prisoners, and specialized prison camps were built in places like Florence, SC, Millen and Andersonville, GA ( officially called Camp Sumter ) and others. The most common camps consisted of wooden stockades enclosing open fields.
On the Union side, the government converted former camps of instruction, like Camp Butler, Illinois, Camp Chase, Ohio, and camps at Elmira, New York. As in the south, they consisted of stockades. Other Confederate prisoners were sent to Fort McHenry in Baltimore and Fort Warren in Boston Harbor.
The most common problems, on both sides, were overcrowding, poor sanitation, and inadequate food. Poor administration, both by prison officials, and the prisoners themselves, made issues worse.
Of the 194,732 Union soldiers held in Confederate prison camps, some 30,000 died while captive. The Federals held around 220,000 Confederate prisoners, with nearly 26,000 perishing.
At Camp Sumter ( Andersonville, pictured below ), 29 percent of the roughly 45,000 Federal prisoners held throughout the war died. As for the Northern prisons, at Camp Douglas, Illinois, 15 percent of the 30,000 Confederate prisoners died.
The Great Confederate Snowball Fight
In honor of the huge winter storm slowly making its way through the Eastern US, we present this excerpt from A History of Kershaw's Brigade, a memoir written by an officer in the 3rd South Carolina, which describes a large-scale snowball fight which took place between Confederate soldiers in the winter of 1862-1863.
"The troops delight in "snow balling," and revelled in the sport for days at a time. Many hard battles were fought, won, and lost; sometimes company against company, then regiment against regiment, and sometimes brigades would be pitted against rival brigades.
When the South Carolinians were against the Georgians, or the two Georgia brigades against Kershaw's and the Mississippi brigades, then the blows would fall fast and furious. The fiercest fight and the hardest run of my life was when Kershaw's Brigade, under Colonel Rutherford, of the Third, challenged and fought Cobb's Georgians.
Colonel Rutherford was a great lover of the sport, and wherever a contest was going on he would be sure to take a hand. On the day alluded to Colonel Rutherford martialed his men by the beating of drums and the bugle's blast; officers headed their companies, regiments formed, with flags flying, then when all was ready the troops were marched to the brow of a hill, or rather half way down the hill, and formed line of battle, there to await the coming of the Georgians. They were at that moment advancing across the plain that separated the two camps. The men built great pyramids of snow balls in their rear, and awaited the assault of the fast approaching enemy. Officers cheered the men and urged them to stand fast and uphold the "honor of their State," while the officers on the other side besought their men to sweep all before them off the field.
The men stood trembling with cold and emotion, and the officers with fear, for the officer who was luckless enough as to fall into the hands of a set of "snow revelers," found to his sorrow that his bed was not one of roses.
When the Georgians were within one hundred feet the order was given to "fire." Then shower after shower of the fleecy balls filled the air. Cheer after cheer went up from the assaulters and the assaultant—now pressed back by the flying balls, then to the assault again. Officers shouted to the men, and they answered with a "yell."
When some, more bold than the rest, ventured too near, he was caught and dragged through the lines, while his comrades made frantic efforts to rescue him. The poor prisoner, now safely behind the lines, his fate problematical, as down in the snow he was pulled, now on his face, next on his back, then swung round and round by his heels—all the while snow being pushed down his back or in his bosom, his eyes, ears, and hair thoroughly filled with the "beautiful snow."
After a fifteen minutes' struggle, our lines gave way. The fierce looks of a tall, muscular, wild-eyed Georgian, who stood directly in my front, seemed to have singled me out for sacrifice. The stampede began. I tried to lead the command in the rout by placing myself in the front of the boldest and stoutest squad in the ranks, all the while shouting to the men to "turn boys turn." But they continued to charge to the rear, and in the nearest cut to our camp, then a mile off, I saw the only chance to save myself from the clutches of that wild-eyed Georgian was in continual and rapid flight.
The idea of a boy seventeen years old, and never yet tipped the beam at one hundred, in the grasp of that monster, as he now began to look to me, gave me the horrors. One by one the men began to pass me, and while the distance between us and the camp grew less at each step, yet the distance between me and my pursuer grew less as we proceeded in our mad race. The broad expanse that lay between the men and camp was one flying, surging mass, while the earth, or rather the snow, all around was filled with men who had fallen or been overtaken, and now in the last throes of a desperate snow battle. I dared not look behind, but kept bravely on. My breath grew fast and thick, and the camp seemed a perfect mirage, now near at hand then far in the distance.
The men who had not yet fallen in the hands of the reckless Georgians had distanced me, and the only energy that kept me to the race was the hope that some mishap might befall the wild-eyed man in my rear, otherwise I was gone. No one would have the temerity to tackle the giant in his rage. But all things must come to an end, and my race ended by falling in my tent, more dead than alive, just as I felt the warm breath of my pursuer blowing on my neck. I heard, as I lay panting, the wild-eyed man say, "I would rather have caught that d——n little Captain than to have killed the biggest man in the Yankee Army."
Attack on Fort Fisher
Today we consider the attack on the Confederate bastion at Fort Fisher, near Wilmington, North Carolina. Built to protect the vital port there, and to allow blockade runners in, Fisher was built mostly of earth and sand, meant to absorb shells. The sea face held 22 guns, in a series of 12-foot-high batteries, and on the south end was two larger batteries 45 and 60 feet high. Smaller mounds served as a telegraph room and a hospital bombproof. The land face ( 25 guns ) contained 15 mounds each one 32 feet high with interior rooms used as bombproofs, powder magazines and connected by underground tunnels. A 9-foot-high palisade fence ran along in front of the land face.
The Union army and navy planned several attacks on Fort Fisher and the port of Wilmington, but did not attack until Christmas Eve 1864. This attack failed, and the Federals returned for a second try on January 12, 1865. For two and a half days, Federal ships bombarded the fort. On January 15, more than 3,300 Union infantry, including the 27th US Colored Troops, hit the land face. After several hours troops captured the fort.
The Confederates evacuated their remaining forts in the Cape Fear area, the Union took Wilmington, and closed the last port available to blockade runners.

New Year's Eve in History
On New Year's Eve 1862, the USS Monitor sank in a storm off Cape Hatteras, NC. The ship was being towed to Beaufort, NC by the USS Rhode Island, when a tow line broke and ship began taking on water. The Monitor sank with the loss of 4 officer and 16 crew. The wreck was discovered in 1974.
Also on New Year's Eve 1862, and continuing into New Year's Day 1863, was the Battle of Stones River outside Murfreesboro, TN. The Federal Army of the Cumberland under General Rosecrans ( left ) engaged Confederates of the Army of Tennessee under Braxton Bragg. The result was a retreat by Bragg that abandoned much of Middle Tennessee to the Union. After the battle, the Federals constructed a huge fortification called Fortress Rosecrans that served as a supply depot and base of occupation for the Union for the duration of the war.

Malachai escorted Cole and Ruby to Aura, where the festivities were to be held. Halfway there, the horse drawn carriage came to an abrupt stop. Malachai peered out the window. "The Fae boy has flagged us down." He informed hoping out of the carriage. Cole followed suit and held his hand to help Ruby down as well.
Jace took one glance at Ruby and his eyes widened as what he suspected to be true was confirmed. Ruby was in fact, attending the festival. "Do you have a death wish for me?"
The perspective answers from Cole, Ruby and Malachai came in unison.
"I don't follow."
"The Elders believe I have killed Ruby, because they suspected her to have stolen the tome, and they think she is in cohorts with the Dragon King." Jace explained.
Cole stepped toward Jace. "And why should we protect you?"
Jace took a step forward and leveled his gaze with Cole's. His dark wings flared out in warning. "Because my sister risked her life to help you. Highness." He seethed, all but spitting the last word.
Ruby intervened by putting her hand on Cole's arm to calm him down, but he shrugged her off. He thought about it for a long minute. "Fair enough. You and Penelope will be under our protection from here on out and abide by my rules." He cast Jace a dark look.
"And what would those rules be?" Jace asked in an agitated tone.
Without meaning to, Cole glanced back at Ruby. Don't kiss my friends, he thought. Instead he said. "You are to be watched at all times until I trust you."
Ruby glanced between the two boys, and then back at Malachai. The woodsman thoughtfully assessed the situation before speaking. "We mean no disrespect, we are grateful for your assistance Jace. Please...bring Penelope to the castle and I'll have my guards watch over her. There will be enough tension at the Festival tonight, without you having to worry over her. You have my word that she will be well protected and treated fairly."
That was enough for Jace. When it came to Pen's protection, he was able to put things into perspective. And, as often as Jace got under her skin, that was something she could empathize with. The bond between the two siblings, made Ruby long for home and family.
Misreading Ruby's appreciation and understanding for something else, Jace gave her a smug grin. Their moment was ruined as heat flooded into her core and she remembered just how wicked Jace could be. Ruby took a sudden interest in her boots. With only a curt nod at Malachai, Jace headed back to his own steed.
The Festival was in full swing by the time they arrived. A narrow passageway made within the trees, took them to the Sycamore. A Fae throne carved of wood and embellished with flowers sat against it. Lantern birds of every make and model, color and assortment, took refuge in the tree, creating a spectacular display of light. Ruby gasped in awe. She smiled at Cole, glad to have been able to share this moment with him.
Flute players made jubilant music, in which the Fae delighted in dancing and frolicking to. A smorgasbord of colorful food and drinks, stretched the expanse of several wide oak trees. Malachai leaned in towards them. "Be respectful, but be on guard. The Fae have a habit of tampering with drinks, for their own amusement," he advised before slipping into the crowd.
Ruby grabbed Cole's hand. "Want to dance? The Fae elders haven't arrived yet!" Without waiting for an answer Ruby grabbed his hand. They laughed as they stumbled awkwardly into the mass of Fae and humans. They spun and twirled, and made up their own lyrics to the wordless music. Ruby was having so much fun losing herself with Cole, that she almost forgot anyone else existed. They could have been in any time and place. The dancing was a welcome distraction from their two woven realities. However, the spell was broken when Aira"accidentally" bumped into Cole.
Flowers were braided into the Princess's hair, and she wore a delicate white gown, though she looked anything but pure in it. Ruby glared as Aira led Cole into a secluded area.
Cole hadn't found a sincere way to turn Aira down when she came looking for him. He knew, she was in a fragile state of mind after all she had been through today. He followed her out of duty and sympathy.
Aira had been stewing as she watched Ruby and Cole from a distance. In spite of all her efforts to tear them apart, the pair seemed to have an impenetrable bond. With the tiny vile secured in her satchel, Aira prepared her Kings's drink. She handed him the mug of ale, which, much to her surprise he gulped down greedily.
Their eyes met as Cole finished the last drop. The mug dropped and rolled on the forest floor as Cole zeroed in on the Princess. He stalked her. With every step towards her, she took a playful step backwards until her back was against a wide tree trunk. He set his hands on either side of her head. Aira's breath caught in her lungs. He leaned in closely. That was how Ruby had found them.
Ruby's heart shattered into a million tiny pieces as she watched them unnoticed. Cole was staring at Aira with a level of intensity that Ruby never knew from him. Ruby backed away quietly, consumed by her own need to be comforted. In her blind fury, she ran into a hard wall. Jace's chest. "Eager to be somewhere?"
Ruby licked her lips. What did it matter if she kissed Jace? She told herself she didn't have those kind of feelings for Cole, and it was clear he liked someone else. The girl who happened to be evil incarnate.
Ruby stepped closer to Jace, welcoming a distraction.
Cole fought the hallucinations and effects of the poison. He leaned close to Aira, so only she could hear what he was about to say."Seems my drink has been tampered with. Luckily, my will cannot easily be bent. Keep a close eye out for anything suspicious."
He left Aira slumped against the tree with her mouth agape. He was going to find Jace and make him pay for poisoning him.

The annual Jersey Shore Science Fair, a prelude to the big Delaware Valley Science Fair, is looking for a few more judges.
The annual event is scheduled for March 19 at Richard Stockton College in Galloway Township. More than 600 students from 39 schools in Atlantic, Cape May, Ocean and Monmouth counties have already registered, and all those entries have to be judged by people with some science background.
Typically judges have been teachers, and employees from the nearby FAA Tech Center and engineering and science-related businesses. The fair covers all science topics, so many areas of expertise are welcomed. Judges work in teams, reviewing the entries and interviewing students.
There's a lot of emphasis nationally on STEM or Science, Technology, Engineering and Math as being crucial to our future. Science fairs help students discover if this is what they love to do. But they need adult support. So if you think you might be interested, click here for more information.

The issue of gender has been widely discussed recently which means that this subject is topical. Well, you are obviously aware of the fact that society views regarding gender depend greatly on a particular country.
However, there are still lots of countries in which women are viewed merely as housewives. Even if a lot of women work, the stereotype that she is going to choose family over her career still exists. As a result, some of them are unable to get the job they deserve because of the existence of these so-called beliefs.
Speaking about transgender, the situation is even worse because of the fact that the society remains completely intolerant. It seems really difficult to comprehend that one can be uncomfortable with their gender. As a result, a lot of transgender get hurt even though they have not done anything wrong. If you are willing to read more regarding the subject under consideration as well as familiarize yourself with the examples of cross-cultural perspectives on gender, do not hesitate to go to … Cross-cultural perspectives on gender

Chapter Twenty-Five
"Daggerfork, how the devil are you?" Zerlin cried happily, as soon as they entered the room.
"I be fine, Master," Daggerfork replied, and stepped back so Zedia, Flora, Blaze and Aidez came into full view.
"Ah, the fourth generation, bit small aren't you?" Zerlin said.
Blaze frowned.
"We are only fourteen," Blaze said angrily.
Daggerfork looked at him sternly, he had ignored his instructions.
"I guess you're right. This Vladek obviously is too impatient to wait for the prophecy to let him start his take over,"
Zedia stepped forward.
"That's why we have to start the defence early too,"
Zedia was surprised with himself, less than a few hours ago he was running to school because he was late. Now he was talking like a warrior.
"Yes, that's correct. But from what I've heard, you have had a very active day… and from what I can see, you've had a very dirty day," Zerlin ran his eyes over their torn school blazers.
"We have showers and beds for you, stay here for tonight and we'll talk tomorrow, Daggerfork, we also have a bed for you,"
Daggerfork bowed, and out of instinct the other three followed.
"Gnomes!" Zerlin called, which was followed by the massive door opening and five little creatures entering through it.
From a distance they looked like goblins, but at closer view Zedia realised that they were Gnomes.
Each one of them were dressed exactly the same. They had tall red pointy hats, blue shirts covered by red dungarees. They also wore yellow spotted shorts.
Each member of the team was greeted by one, and then pulled by the trouser legs out of the room.
Zedia took one last look at the old wizard, who was staring out the window, and let himself be pulled away.
The hot running water felt extremely good on Zedia's skin.
This reminded him of that morning, where he had to miss his shower.
He felt all the mud and soil sliding off of him.
He got out, and was aware of Aidez looking at him.
"Look away," He told him.
'Sorry master' Aidez said and twisted around.
When he returned to his room, he found a pair of sewn pyjamas.
He dried himself off with the towel and slipped on the pair of trousers.
The air was hot, so he left the top off.
He pulled the covers off and slipped himself under them.
Aidez settled on the pillow next to him.
He lay his head on the pillow and felt all of his troubles just lifting off him, and before he knew it, he was fast asleep,
As Zedia's eyes drifted open, he forgot where he was. He expected to feel the cold tiles of his bedroom floor, but instead he felt the warm feeling of the woven wolf skin carpet.
He heaved himself up and walked toward the bedroom door, Aidez was reluctantly pulled off the pillow and was thrown towards Zedia.
'No, five more minutes' Aidez said but the strange magic magnetism kept pulling him.
Zedia opened the door, and was almost shocked to see the Gnome standing three foot below him.
"Master Zerlin wants to see you for breakfast,"
The Gnome's voice was high pitched, and he talked very quickly.
Zedia sneered, but the Gnome ignored him and turned and waved in a 'follow me' motion.
Zedia slipped on a dressing gown and followed.

You're reviewing: Wildflowers Deodorant
- it works Review by Cathy
I have tried many deodorants and have had limited success. This lasts for up to 24 hours and I could definitely recommend this product! No more smelly armpits!
(Posted on 24/03/17)
- nice to wear Review by Mandy
Nice to wear, not sure on the fragrance -reminds me of my nanna
(Posted on 24/03/17)
- Wildflowers deodorant. Review by Rhonda
Very pleased with it. Love the light delicate smell, is not overpowering. Will definitely purchase again.
(Posted on 24/03/17)
- Best deodorant ever!! Review by Debbie
I have been struggling with sweating and sweat odour for years even when it's not hot I would sweat and wearing business attire daily and working with people it would lead to very uncomfortable situations. I have tried many of the supermarket products and found that none delivered desirable results. With nothing more to lose and wanting to switch to natural body products I ordered the Body Crystal Wildflower roll-on. This product has changed my life! It doesn't prevent sweating but it eliminates any odour associated with sweating. I can go to work with confidence now, even on hot days. I will never buy anything else again.
(Posted on 14/03/17)
- Lovely fragrance Review by Donna
I have used a few of natural deodorants and find that this one lasts all day which is great as most do not. Will definitely keep using this product as it's really good size for the price. Cheers
(Posted on 18/01/17)
- lovely smell Review by Kellyrae
This has such a soft and feminine smell. I love it! I am not sure if it works overly well once the day goes on, and I don't really find natural deodorant do. I have tried them all. This one is probably the best of the bunch, though! I love the Weleda rose deodorant, and have been using that one for years, as I thought it was the best of the bunch. After reading these posted reviews I ordered Body Crystal Wildflowers to try and it is actually just a little bit better that Weleda.
Sorry Weleda, I do love your rose products, and will remain loyal for the rose eye cream, rose day cream, and rose body lotion but I think you lost me on the deodorant. Or maybe I will alternate the two.
(Posted on 17/11/16)
- Fantastic product Review by Margaret
I have been delighted to find an aluminium-free deodorant that works so well. Highly recommend this product and wish I'd found it sooner. Decent sized applicator as well plus it works effectively all day.
(Posted on 10/11/16)
- Love it! Review by Esther
Great product, works well, leaves no marks on clothes, I'd definitely buy this again.
(Posted on 3/11/16)
- it works! Review by Chelle
Really impressed with this, it's the first crystal deodorant that I've found to actually work. It also doesn't sting my skin to apply after shaving which is a plus. I do find the roller is a bit stiff and sometimes I need to manually spin it with my finger to get product out, but that could just be a one-off for my bottle.
(Posted on 16/10/16)
- no smell Review by Dagmar
Been using it for years now,, last very long, has no smell to it, my clothing do to smell either :) and when I forgot to use it I CAN smell it!

Director's liability for corporate fault reform - .PDF file.
The Personal Liability for Corporate Fault Reform Act 2012 (Cth) commenced on 11 December 2012. It was intended to implement the Council of Australian Governments' Director's Liability reform (COAG reform). The reform initiative is intended to remove regulatory burdens on directors and officers (Ds&Os) that cannot be justified on public policy grounds and to minimise inconsistencies between Australian jurisdictions on the application of personal liability for corporate fault in government laws. Whether the liability act achieves this aim, and its impact on D&O liability insurance, will be considered in this article.
The liability act is mainly concerned with derivative liability, that is where a director or officer is made criminally liable for the acts of the corporation in which they serve. This derivative form of liability arises without the need to establish that these persons either breached the law through their own misconduct or were accessories to the misconduct of their corporations.
The act amends a number of laws including the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), the Foreign Acquisition and Takeovers Act 1974 (Cth), the Health Insurance Act 1973 (Cth) and the Insurance Contracts Act 1984 (Cth) (ICA)…

Indigent Defense
Access to an attorney means little if they lack the time, resources, or skills to be an effective advocate. Thus, one of the areas CLRP focuses on is creating or improving indigent defense systems to ensure quality representation for all defendants, regardless of income or social status. Across the country, public defenders or assigned counsel are too often forced to juggle hundreds of cases at once, giving short shrift to investigation, case preparation, and legal research; they often meet their clients for the first time minutes before critical proceedings. Moreover, public defenders are frequently outgunned by prosecutors armed with greater resources, larger staffs, and a partnership with the local police department. Through litigation and advocacy, we work to ensure that states invest in statewide indigent defense systems that provide constitutionally effective representation to low-income defendants. The absence of strong, well-resourced indigent defense systems offends the Constitution, leads to deeply unfair results, and contributes to our overburdened and wasteful jail and prison systems.

| View Exclusive AAUP Compensation Survey Data |
Illinois law makes it more difficult for public universities to use outside firms to identify candidates for non-presidential jobs, but critics say it won't save money in the long run.
Raises were larger at private colleges and universities than at public ones, survey finds.
U. of Illinois president's departure does not shock critics, who wonder why the university picked him after a rocky presidency at the U. of Connecticut.
At U. of Maryland University College, often held up as a model institution, faculty expressed concerns about president's leadership long before she was placed on leave last week.
Under pressure from several directions, California State University trustees approve a ceiling on compensation for incoming presidents.
In tough times, with unions under attack, professors on picket lines face huge challenges -- and some think the impact may not be purely economic.

Experiencing History
Each year thousands of tourists visit the Kreis Offenbach for its beautiful historic sights. In all 13 municipalities relicts from the past can be admired. Take, for example, the grand tumuli in the forest near Langen or Dietzenbach and numerous archaeological excavations which are displayed in the museums of local history. Well-preserved medieval town centres with picturesque half-timbered houses as well as castles, monasteries and churches await every visitor.
In the west of the Kreis Offenbach a visit to Dreieich is full of discovery. The town with five very different districts offers a variety of cultural monuments. The most recently built of all districts, Buchschlag, with its garden city like housing estates from the early 20th century is exceptional. The "Villenkolonie Buchschlag" (colony of mansion houses) is characterised in part by outstanding cultural monuments. The mansion like country homes are situated on large estates and have their own architectural style. The district Dreieichenhain is – like Seligenstadt – member of the "Fachwerkstrasse" (Half-timber road). The old town together with the medieval castle area are listed monuments. The old town is marked by its historic Franconian half-timber houses within the former city walls. The visitor experiences whether he enters the beautiful half-timber ensemble via the upper or lower gate a memorable voyage into the past. Especially the "Fahrgasse" - the main road between the upper and the lower gate - is characterised by gable fronted half-timber houses from the 17th and 18th century.
The idyllic castle Wolfsgarten (1721-1724) with its large landscape garden is located near the Kreisstrasse between Langen and Egelsbach. Today the castle is used for residential purposes and welfare services and is as well as the smaller buildings belonging to it, such as the "Prinzessinnenhaus" (House of the Princess) for instance (1902, a treasure of Art Nouveau built by the architect J.M. Olbrich), listed. Each year, when the Rhododendron is in bloom the castle opens its doors to the public.
The residential town Heusenstamm was mentioned for the first time in 1211. Today the town located in the centre of the district is a destination worth visiting. Passing through the Baroque-red town gate which today is the home of the museum of local history, you arrive directly in Heusenstamm's idyllic old town at the Baroque square in front of the church St. Cäcilia. St. Cäcilia was built between 1739 and 1744 by Balthasar Neumann. Its architectural predominance is highlighted by the surrounding buildings. Leaving the square the Schlossstrasse with its gable fronted houses - former farmhouses (Hofreiten) - leads to the castle. Carefully maintained are the partly half-timber fronts and the green in the courtyards. The castle Schönborn (1663-1668), an impressive building from the Renaissance with a grand Baroque garden, today accommodates part of the city council. Walking through the castle's main entrance the visitor arrives at the ruin of the former water castle (from 1211). Those who take a closer look at it will find out about its intriguing history and the different stages of its construction.
The old town of Seligenstadt within its former fortification is listed and takes the visitor on a fascinating journey to experience its over 1100 year old history. Highlights of the Einhard-City Seligenstadt are the monastery, founded in 1828, the Einhard-Basilica, sanctified in 840 and thus oldest church in the Kreis Offenbach as well as the Kaiserpfalz from the era of the Staufen. Many carefully restored architectural treasures characterise the Old-Franconian half-timber town by the river Main. The historic market square impresses with its precious and fully preserved houses to which in comparison the "new" town hall from 1823 appears almost modern. Moving from the market square to the Aschaffenburger Strasse, the so-called "Einhardhaus" built in 1596 catches the visitor's attention with its broad gable façade, the rich half-timber ornaments and the Rhenish oriel which is decorated with wonderful wood carvings. Despite the surrounding monastery walls the visitor looking left onto the Freihof-square has a wonderful view over the entire monastery of the former Benedictine abbey and the towers of the Einhard-Basilica. Fascinating are also the Baroque garden of the monastery, a demonstration of the restored mill and the historically important Einhard-Basilica, which was built in 830 Carolingian era by Einhard, the chancellor of Charlemagne.

The forward class in the 2012 MLS Combine is an intriguing one, as teams try to figure out who the top strikers will be on the board once Akron star Darren Mattocks is taken, as expected, with the first or second pick in the draft.
Three of the most likely candidates to go early from the forward pool are UCLA product Chandler Hoffman (pictured), Maryland standout Casey Townsend and South Florida star Dom Dwyer. All three are projected first rounders, and all three have caught the eye of scouts at the MLS Combine.
Hoffman and Townsend have enjoyed two of the best combines to date, leading the attack for the strongest team at the event. Dom Dwyer shook off a forgettable first Combine day with a strong showing in Sunday's action, showing off the traits that could see him taken early in the first round of the MLS Draft.
SBI caught up with all three forwards and got their thoughts on the Combine so far, as well as some insight into their make-up as players:
I don't get how anyone could have watched the game yesterday and been impressed by Dwyer. he was absolutely shut down by Hedges and will have an even more difficult time in MLS.
Also, people who say things on Twitter like "#stayhumble" are and never were humble.
Blue Ridge FC
Agreed Oranje…the Spanish have a saying, " If you say you are, then you are not."

Baggies beaten by brilliant Royals
A superb Reading performance saw Brian McDermott's men come from behind to knock Premier League West Brom out of the FA Cup and reach the quarter-finals of the competition with goals from Paul McShane, Michael Hector and Lucas Piazon!
Darren Fletcher had broken the deadlock with a low drive that skidded beyond the low dive of Ali Al Habsi. But Reading levelled when former Baggies defender Paul McShane got his glancing head to an inswinging Oliver Norwood free kick. And Reading took the lead with less than 20 minutes remaining, when another Norwood set piece was met by Michael Hector at the far post and a flailing Foster was unable to keep his header out.
Lucas Piazon added a third late one when Reading broke from their own half, the late substitute driving the ball past Ben Foster to seal the Royals' place in the quarter-finals!
Boss Brian McDermott made just two changes to the side that drew with Burnley here last weekend, bringing in Simon Cox for his first start since and playing new signing Deniss Rakels up front for the first time. Matej Vydra was only fit enough for a place on the bench, while the cup-tied Yann Kermorgant missed out.
The Royals early chances came from left-sided crosses, first from Rakels whose delivery was just too deep for Hal Robson-Kanu in the middle, then from Obita but the ball pinballed away from danger.
Chris Brunt arrowed a free kick harmlessly over the bar at the other end, but some quick footwork from Robson-Kanu saw him skip between three West Brom players and scamper forward, delivering a cross which was aimed at Rakels but which was glanced behind for a corner.
That corner was cleared but recycled and Cox scrapped the ball out of the box to tee up McShane for a first time right-footed shot that whistled inches wide of the right post.
Hector went on a marauding run from midfield that ended with Quinn winning a free kick no the left, with half an hour played. Norwood swung it in and Foster had to punch clear of McShane's head in the middle.
Foster was called into more urgent action seven minutes later, when Gunter's cross from the right was glanced goalwards by Robson-Kanu and a flailing arm from the former Manchester United keeper was enough to turn it over the crossbar.
Reading had been the better side but a run from McClean in from the right side almost set up a chance for Salomon Rondon, but he scuffed his effort which dribbled through for Al Habsi to calmly gather.
Half-time: Reading 0 West Brom 0
Quick feet from Stephane Sessegnon saw the ball cut into the feet of Fletcher, but the midfielder spooned a difficult chance over the bar.
But Albion opened the scoring when
Darren Fletcher
recieved the ball in space inside the box, took a touch and then rifled low under the slide of Jake Cooper and beyond the outstretched arm of Al Habsi.
Reading looked to respond immediately and Robson-Kanu won a corner which was headed clear, then Rondon was penalised for a foul on McShane as he nodded a header towards goal only for Al Habsi to claw it away before the whistle had sounded.
Brian McDermott made a double substitution, bringing Ola John and Matej Vydra off the bench. And suddenly, Reading were level. Obita's dart forward was stopped illegally and an inswinging Norwood free kick was met by the head of former West Brom defender
- and Foster couldn't keep it out despite getting a touch to his close range glancing effort.
Robson-Kanu skewed an effort wide after Norwood had fed him out on the right side and the wide man had cut inside to pull the trigger. Norwood then tried his luck from distance but dragged his speculative effort well wide.
James McClean got above McShane to head a Chester cross wide, but then Ola John won a free kick at the other end of the pitch when Chester tripped the substitute. Norwood arced another lovely ball into the box and
met it at the far post to nod Reading into the lead.
Ola John came within a whisker of adding a third when he cut inside from the left and arrowed a low effort inches wide of the bottom right corner. Then a second opportunity went begging after Robson-Kanu had cut in from the right and crossed low into the box, but John's first touch denied him a strike at goal before a covering defender came across to clear.
Albion began to throw the kitchen sink at the Royals box and twice came close to an equaliser. First Fletcher's flick on from a corner was met by the head of Berahino but somehow he failed to turn it on target, stooping six yards out. Then, the ball was whipped back in from the opposite side this time and Fletcher burst onto it to connect with a right-footed volley that thankfully was straight at Al Habsi who happily gobbled it up on his goalline.
Sessegnon smashed a right-footed effort high and wide, then Al Habsi punched clear of a crowded box, the offside flag going up against the Baggies defender who had won the header in the middle in the process.
In three minutes of injury time, a long throw into the Royals box was hacked clear by Gunter and John set Robson-Kanu away on the break. In acres of space he burst into the box but placed his effort just wide of the target.
The tie was won with a third moments later though. Another break begun by Ola John's ball in to Vydra at first saw the striker scurry to the corner flag in an attempt to eat up the final few seconds of time. But seeing men up with him in the middle, the substitute pulled it back to John who squared it for late replacement Lucas Piazon. He controlled it and then rifled low past Foster to seal the cup win and a place in the quarter-finals!

Just when you thought the Luke Rodgers saga was over, it has clearly only begun. Norwegian publication Aftenposten reports that the diminutive English striker has signed on with Tippeligaen side Lillestrom SK through the 2012 season.
Lillestrom Director of Football Torgeir Bjarmann acquired Rodgers thanks to a tip from former Lillestrom player and current New York Red Bulls General Manager, Erik Soler.
"We have searched around to bring in a replacement," Bjarmann told Aftenposten. "After some searching, it turned out that Luke Rodgers was available. Erik Soler told us about him, and so it has gone very fast. Hopefully everything is in order so that he may be available on Sunday, but it remains to be seen."
His debut could come against Rosenberg tomorrow.
A report surfaced contradicting the termination of Rodgers' contract with the Red Bulls. Contrary to the club's statement on the situation, Soler told the New York Post that Rodgers was transferred to the Norwegian club. In a press conference prior to today's match, Soler once again reiterated the club's stance – Rodgers contract with the team was terminated, and the team would continue to pursue the striker as he works on acquiring his visa.
""We didn't transfer him. We terminated his contract and he went to a club of his free will," he said.
"We, of course, are not very happy but we respect the fact that there is a system in place that makes decisions," Soler expressed to the gathered press. "However, we are not giving up so we'll continue to try but it was very important for everybody, especially for Luke of course, to play some soccer now. His last game was in November, so we were very happy to, on the last day of the transfer window in Scandinavia, to get him a club so he can play, and then we will see if we are able to, which we hope, to bring him back to the U.S. at a later date."
Soler revealed to SBI yesterday that New York would be in the market for one or two players to replenish the team prior to the April 15th transfer deadline. The team will looking looking both in the domestic and international markets for a replacement. The Red Bulls will have the ability to maneuver thanks to a surplus of roster spots and cap space.
Share your thoughts on the situation below.
So, they let him go on a free and made a gentlemen's agreement once his Visa is sorted out to resign with Redbulls?
If not, why in the hell shouldn't they seek a transfer fee, especially considering it appears Soler helped orchestrate this move?
Something doesn't seem right about this story, but when the story concerns the Red Bulls it rarely does.
Luke looks so sad. Let this be a lesson, foreign boys and girls. Overstay your work visa and Uncle Sam reigns down hell.
I wish they could put some more logos on that uniform
No, lesson is that Uncle Sam is a uptight b*tch. That's it. Luke is "safe" enough for Norway but not the US? Bollocks.
As for Soler, it sounds like he's just helping a ex-employee with a referral.

Every project will need an update or a tweak in the future. One way to be prepared is to keep good records after the fact. When a client calls and asks for an update, you will then have everything you need when you need it.
Everyone will have a preference of how to keep records and there is truly no right or wrong way. I choose to keep a folder on a secure server that houses the original designs, project plans, and functionality files. Paper records are fine for some information; however, electronic versions of the records are searchable in most cases. Make sure to keep a backup of all files in case of a server failure.

3 1/2 Ways to Roast Bell Peppers
Roasted peppers are a critical component of many dishes, but a lot of recipes simply call for "roasted peppers" without explaining how to roast them. I have compiled three simple ways to roast at home like a pro.
This recipe is perfect for adding tender, smoky flavor to your meal without having to purchase expensive jarred peppers. I'd love to hear about any other techniques that you use; please share them in the comments.
3 1/2 Ways to Roast Bell Peppers
- Bell Peppers
- Baking sheet
- Foil
- Large bowl, paper bag or plastic bag
- Paper towels
- Oven mitt
- Tongs
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet with foil and lay whole peppers out, stems pointing sideways.
- Place sheet pan in the oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, rotate each pepper a half turn using the tongs and place the pan back in the oven for another 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven. At this point, the skin should be lightly charred and soft, and the peppers should look a bit collapsed. If the peppers do not seem ready, return them to the oven for a few more minutes.
- Note: It is also possible to use an oven broiler to roast peppers. This method is much faster, but will yield a much more charred result. To use this technique, place the sheet pan in the upper-third of the oven and roast approximately 20 minutes, turning every 3-5 minutes. The skin will be very black and crispy.
- Skip to Finishing the Roasted Peppers
- Wrap each pepper in a double layer of foil, sealing tightly.
- Wearing a protective oven mitt, place the foil-wrapped pepper directly over a gas stovetop flame set to medium.
- Let the pepper roast for 20-25 minutes, using tongs to give it a quarter turn every 5 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, use the tongs to gently squeeze the pepper. If it seems soft and easily yields to the tongs it is ready; if the pepper still seems firm, continue to roast for a few minutes until it softens.
- Remove from the stovetop and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Carefully open the foil and remove the pepper, which should be nicely charred.
- Skip to Finishing the Roasted Peppers
- Wearing a protective oven mitt, place peppers on an open grill over medium gas flame.
- Let the peppers roast for 15-20 minutes, using tongs to give them a quarter turn every 3-5 minutes.
- Remove from heat when the peppers are charred, soft and collapsing.
- Skip to Finishing the Roasted Peppers
- The final step in any roasting process is steaming and removing the seeds. Place roasted peppers on a cutting board with a large bowl over top (or in a paper or plastic bag), trapping the heat and steam inside. Let sit for 15 minutes.
- Once cooled, slice the pepper vertically from top to bottom on one side and lay out in one long strip.
- Pull the stem and seed clump off the top and use a paper towel to wipe out any remaining loose seeds.
- Flip the pepper over and strip off the charred skin. You can adjust the amount of charred flavor you would like by leaving more or less charred skin.
- Store in a jar covered with olive oil until ready for use.

Chapter 5
Peter. I am lying in bed, the silence surrounding me, and I can't remember the last time I saw a person not wearing a ski mask. Still, my mind can't help but formulate a picture of this mystery boy in my head. Just from talking to him, I know he has a kind, open face. His hair is probably brown, because that's the color hair I think a boy named Peter should have. I reach up to touch my own hair. It is cut to just above my shoulders, and is sort of soft, but mostly greasy.
I pull myself from under the sheet and pad over to the door, bending down so the faint light touches my body. I pull of strand of hair out and see it is lightly colored. There aren't any split ends or anything. I guess the people here keep us groomed while they do whatever they do when we're unconscious.
The thought send shivers down my spine, but I force it from my mind. I have to focus. On what? On Peter.
He is probably taller than me. I feel like most people are taller than me. The people in the masks are certainly taller than me. He probably has nice eyes, too. Friendly eyes. The eyes of the man who had taken my pulse flash before me. But I don't think Peter has those eyes. Maybe his are more brown, or green, or purple. Can people have purple eyes?
I dream of purple eyes and black masks as I shiver to sleep.

Voice of Treason
By Soledad Brothers
I'd like to draw an analogy if I may, (bear with me, this is going somewhere) between retro rock music and vintage clothing. Like retro rock there's an awful lot of vintage clothing around, but only a portion of it is authentic and an even smaller portion of it is any good. For every sexy, washed out yet perfect 1978 Kiss t-shirt going for a song on ebay there's 20 rubbishy vintage-style crap screen print tees in topman or warehouse or some other national chain store. These fakes are all well and good if you want to give the impression of individuality and panache, but you fall on your face when every other townie in Creation is in the same get-up. So what I'm saying is, finding a unique shirt that's got quality, style, and a true aura of real rock music is like searching for a shred of talent in the students of the Fame Academy- i.e. nigh on impossible. So, back to the analogy, the 'vintage-style' we find in abundance in retro rock is the likes of the Kings of Leon (whose songs are written by the same guy who wrote 'Dance the Night Away' for the Mavericks-live the dream you crazy Fellowills) who have the all the surface but none of the authenticity, and the real deal, the chance find, the 1978 Kiss t-shirt, is The Soledad Brothers.
Voice of Treason stomps with authenticity, this is three men making some old school rock and roll blues, and the Kings of Leon can go jump. Alongside traditional blues songs 'Lay Down This World' and 'I'm So Glad', which are interpreted Soledad style are some outstanding tracks, specifically opener 'Cage That Tiger' ('Sharpen her claws up and down your back / Cat's eyes is green / And it's heart is black / You got to cage that tiger') and the soulful 'Lorali'. The album has some excellent artwork, and is a real find for anyone who values what really is important in music. The Soledad Brothers are about sitting down and jamming with your friends, enjoying music, having fun with music but also understanding it's emotional significance, and that is a pretty rare thing.
I for one am a big fan of the real thing and can't wait to catch the Soledad's at Leeds festival next week, I'll leave the last word to them, as Johnny Walker sings in 'Sights Unseen'- 'S.O.L.E.D.A.D. Play it loud and it'll set you free'!

One question; why do you want to do this? > I think I can do the above with cocoon using cacheable sub-pipelines and > xinclude, is that right? Perhaps, you can definitely do it with aggregators if you don't mind writing one final transform to glue everything together. > All the examples I have seen to date that use xinclude and aggregators > don't seem to support caching intermediate products. Aggregators don't directly have anything to do with the cache, it's up to the pipelines that feed the aggregators to manage what is cacheable. If you ask me it doesn't make sense to think about caching at the level of page components. Rather, you want to figure out your cache concerns at the level of cache persistence. Specifically; break down what information persists forever, what changes per user, what changes per session, what changes per page, etc. Then you generate and cache each of those so that each cache persists for the maximum amount of time that makes sense for that type of content. To manage the page assembly by component process you write XSLT that breaks each area down as needed. Eg, a transform for the header, a transform for the header. Each of these transforms can be reused across multiple pages. Each transform pulls data from any of the aggregated cached pipeline content as needed. That is, the header might contain user specific info, and page specific info. XML and XSLT psuedo code follows... <page> <!-- aggregator wrapper tag --> <layout> <!-- content from page layout pipeline --> <header/> <content/> <footer/> </layout> <userdata> <!-- content from pipeline that caches at user level --> <name>...</name> ... </iuserdatal> <sessiondata> <greeting>..</greeting> ... </sessiondata> ... </page> <xsl:template match="/page"> <html> <xsl:applytemplates select="*"/> </html> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="layout"> <body> <xsl:applytemplates select="*"/> </body> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="header"> <xsl:value-of select="/page/sessiondata/greeting"/> <xsl:value-of select="/page/userdata/name"/> </xsl:tempalte> <xsl:template match="content"> whatever </xsl:tempalte> <xsl:template match="footer"> whatever </xsl:tempalte> -- Peter Hunsberger

Nadesico novels
Hi there
I recently rewatched The Nadesico movie and realised I didn't understand a lot of what was going on.
Is it true there are novels that fill in the gap between the movie and the series?
Many thanks
Yes but they're out of print these days
Yes there are novels that fill up the gap, its originally from a Sega Saturn game though.
And these items are extremely rare, I have no real idea how to get them.
Best place is either specialty stores or ebay. But they're out of print and highly collectable these days. I've seen copies selling for as much as $50 a piece
Are there any scans of the covers of these novels? So as to have an idea of the artstyle the light novels took?
So there are novelization of the game then.
Then, are there also novels that take place after the movie? I know there's a game that continues after the movie with Ruri searching for Akito, so I'd imagine there are possible novelization of that too.
