Road Salt Blamed for Rising Salinity in Northeast Streams
September 6, 2005 12:00 AM - Randolph E. Schmid, Associated Press
The amount of salt dissolved in streams in the Northeast is rising and chemicals used to clear snow and ice from the roads are being blamed.

Protecting China's National Treasure
September 6, 2005 12:00 AM - Claire Doole, WWF International
It is hard to take your eyes off China's national icon as it happily munches on a bamboo shoot, apparently oblivious to the shrieks of delight from a party of schoolchildren. Unfortunately, this is not that rare moment of spotting an endangered species in the wild, but one shared with the 600 or so visitors who come each day to the panda breeding centre in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province.

The Woman Reader
by Belinda Jack
(Yale, £20)
The blurb for The Woman Reader promises that "this lively books tells a story never told before: the complete history of women's reading and the controversies it has inspired ... The book introduces frustrated female readers of many different eras: disappointed ancient poetesses, Babylonian princesses calling for women's voices to be heard, rebellious nuns, confidantes questioning Reformation theologians ..."
The author's introduction observes: "Women's access to the written word has been a particular source of anxiety for men ... almost from the start, since time immemorial, reading has been deemed subversive, disruptive or threatening to the stability of a relationship, a community, even a nation or a worldwide Church".
I don't think I've ever come across a work where the actual book so completely undermines the promise of the dustjacket. It's a well-intentioned attempt to trace women's reading habits all right, but it's not an account of female subversion and male oppression, unless, as Belinda Jack does, you count Nora Barnacle refusing to read Ulysses, by her husband, James Joyce.
However, Joyce did send her letters, which here counts as male pushiness. "Like so many women readers ... she was as good as obliged to read her husband's letters ...". Men! A tip: if you're looking for the feminist substance, you're better off sticking with the feisty introduction, which may be just what its admirers, including Naomi Wolf, have done.
The problem with The Woman Reader is its sheer scale: from the mists of antiquity to the present age, mostly Western Europe, but with quick about-turns in China and the Islamic world. It seeks to be comprehensive, but for much of pre-modern history the question of women reading is indistinguishable from women's social standing.
An account of literate women and their tastes pretty quickly turns into a catalogue of well-born or influential women, the ones with the books, the tuition and the patronage, and it ends up being heavy going. And there's a pardonable confusion between reading and writing, between books and ideas. So Hildegard of Bingen, Christine de Pisan and Julian of Norwich were readers? They were also a mystic, author and saint. And in the case of someone like Margery Kemp, it's not clear whether she was a reader or a listener: a problem that affects much of the earlier period.
As for that reference to the baleful influence of the Catholic Church, well, from late antiquity to the 17th century and beyond it's clear that the Church was a dominant force in promoting women's literacy, from the abbesses who loom large in the earlier period, to the convent schools that taught girls reading.
While history isn't the author's home ground — French literature is — there are some embarrassing slips. She seems to suggest, for instance, that St Brigit of Ireland, a popular, shadowy figure, "had been influenced" by St Bridget of Sweden, who flourished about a millennium later. But the real question: whether the reading habits of women were fundamentally different from those of men, simply remains unproven, except that women, as you'd expect, are keen on devotional works in the earlier period and on sentimental novels in the later, and less keen on philosophy. And women were at least as priggish as men: the real work of Bowdler was done, unnoticed, by his sister Henrietta.
There are, though, some lovely elements. The pictures are delightful, including a lascivious 19th-century piece by Antoine Wiertz, The Reader of Novels, showing a nude woman reading books pushed onto her bed by a little devil.
Her treatment of the novel — patently the pre-eminent women's literary form — is assured. She's good on the culture of the salons. There's a brilliant account of the controversies surrounding the reception of Samuel Richardson's revolting Pamela. But she's remarkably unjudgmental throughout about what women actually read, whether it's the earnest works of Mrs Humphrey Ward or dispiriting modern erotica. Where does Belinda Jack stand, say, on Fifty Shades of Grey, the popularity of which suggests that The Woman Reader of our day is a sucker for badly written pornography? Subversive, eh?

Ch. ThreeMature
Upon climbing the staircase and leaving the dungeon, Sybillen wondered back through the halls – towards his room. Waiting in his room he found Alirina. He knelt down, sword pointing towards the ground. With the overwhelming need to please her, he asked one simple question.
"What are your orders, M'lady?" His voice, deeper and echoing with his new found power.
Alirina smiled, pleased with her work. "You're going to fight." He stood up slowly and grabbed the hilt of his new blade. He slid it into its scabbard then looked up at her and smiled.
"Follow me." She took his hand once more. In an instant they would arrive in an arena. He didn't feel as disorientated as before, showing no signs of vertigo. The walls around him made of a stone that showed signs of age. Beyond the walls was empty seating. The floors were made out of black tiles. Upon closer inspection there were red flecks upon the tiles.
"Welcome to the Proving Grounds. Slaves, prisoners of war, and rivals duel here for honor, pride, and most importantly, their lives. This is where you shall begin your assignment."
He thought about the tiles on the floor. It was blood that laid on the tiles. Lives were lost here. Tens, hundreds, thousands. Who knows how many have fallen here? A loud shrieking noise was heard as a rusted metallic gate creaked open. He turned towards the sound.
"Another life this place shall claim." A dark silhouette soon appeared and walked towards him. Alirina smiled slyly, "A warrior from the Far North." With that, shadows wrapped around her body tightly and she disappeared from view.
He thought about what she had said for a minute. What can a Tundra Warrior have against him? He drew his sword and waited for his opponent. Soon a figure stepped into his view.
His hair was black and long, almost wild and unkempt. An orange scar could be seen over his eye. His armor seemed to be built into his own skin, giant spikes seen on his right shoulder where his spaulders should normally be. Tuffs of fur were seen on the edges of his armor. Coiling down his arm were orange extensions, almost like veins and they led to his sword, which was in his right hand. The sword itself was fairly large the blade being at least 6ft long. It had an animalistic skull for the hilt and cross-guard, the blade coming out of the mouth. The blade was jagged and curved at the end into a slight hook. This scared Sybillen a bit, but what happened next scared him even more. The sword seemed to have a mind of its own, rising and lowering to the breathing of its master. How, he wondered, could he possibly beat this creature?
He shook his head and confronted his opponent. The Northern Warrior let out a blood-curdling scream and ran at him. Sybillen confronted his opponent and slashed at him. With one wide slash he slammed the blade away and the Warrior from the North slashed downward at his opponent. The blade hit his armor, and he recoiled back. Sybillen didn't expect such raw furious movements, but with a being from the North, he didn't expect otherwise. He stepped back and played defensive as he was trained. The Northerner quickly crossed blades with Sybillen again, Sybillen slashed the sword away, but the warrior was voracious with his attacks, and followed up with in a similar manner to a pack of wolves attacking a caribou. More bouts ensued, each contender slashing one another, Sybillen's defensive counter attacking matching the raw bloodlust and fury of that of his challenger.
Sybillen grew angry from being unable to defeat his opponent quickly. With every slash that made past his offensives, he grew enraged. Repeatedly his armor would take the blows, his armor would repair itself. Rage put a veil over his eyes, and soon he imitated his attacker's movements, disregarding speed for pure damage.
The Northerner laughed, his voice deep and as he spoke it echoed with a supernatural resistance that struck him to his core. "Good. Let the rage consume you. Your rage fuels me... Surrender to it... Surrender to me!"
With that, both warriors slammed their blades. Black and orange sparks shot out as their blades slammed into one another. Their eyes locked on to one another. They stared intensely at one another, as if their eyes themselves were dueling each other. After a few seconds, the Northerner slammed his elbow into Sybillen's helmet, stunning him. He then grabbed him with his free hand, and tossed him into the wall 30 feet away, losing his sword. He stepped forward and ran towards him, dragging his cumbersome sword behind him. Sybillen slid down the wall, his back pressed up against it. He looked up, still a bit dazed from the throw. The Northerner spun sideways, bringing his sword up and slammed it down towards Sybillen.
Two figures sat above in a special box seat, one male and one female. Shadows clouding their figures from being seen on the outside.
"So, what do you think, sir?" She asked.
Under his shadowy veil he smiled, "He is by far our greatest creation..." He looked towards the girl. "It seems your disciple has survived longer than the others, there may be something special about him after all."
She nodded, "As I expected... though how long he will last remains a mystery."
He looked back towards the fighters. "Their rage shall shape the world... and we shall rise once more."
Sybillen rolled to the left and looked behind him. The Northerner had slammed his sword into the grey stone wall, getting it stuck. With one heave, he removed his sword, various bricks were pulled out and fell broken on the ground. Sybillen held out his hand and concentrated. He needed his sword, and if his sword was a part of him, could he call it back? He concentrated hard. Meanwhile, the Northerner had turned around completely and stepped towards him. He brought his sword up over his shoulder with one hand and slammed it down. Sybillen concentrated hard, in an instant his sword flew into his hand as if attached by a string. He gripped his sword and stepped to the right, dodging the slash. The Northerner charged once more, but this time Sybillen stepped to the side and slammed his steel sword into his ankle. The Northerner fell backwards. Sybillen brought up his sword with his right hand and repeatedly slammed it down on his opponent. The first few were blocked, but he kicked the sword from the Northerner's hands soon afterwards. He slammed his sword down 10 or so times in a row, with such blood-lust and overwhelming rage he was now like a bull elephant on the charge. At about the 20th slash, the Northerner rolled away and stood up. He grabbed Sybillen's arm and flipped him over his shoulder, slamming him on his back. Sybillen quickly jumped on his feet. He panted heavily, his armor shredded, wisps of his black shadowy true form were clearly visible. After that attack, the Northerner made a horizontal slash, Sybillen leaned back, and the slash missed him by inches. Sybillen countered by slamming the hilt of his sword into his opponents face, leaving a slight bruise. He spun to the left, burying the sword into the man's back, the point barely seen out of his chest. He smirked, thinking the game was over.
Oh, but, how far from reality that idea was.
The tip of the sword was covered in his blood, and he stood there limp for a second. The Northerner laughed, then ripped the sword out of his chest and tossed it to the side. He turned to see his opponent. His eyes were a bright red, and his battle wounds glowed a bright red, as did the giant spikes on his shoulders. Cracks in his chest armor were also glowing, mainly placed on the right side of his chest. His sword which was normally a rust colored turned dark red as well, and in the handle's two ovals glowed right where the skull's eyes would be. Sybillen was shocked, and before he knew it the warrior attacked. A downward slash came his way, and Sybillen raised his wrists. The blade slammed down on his crossed wrists, and he fell to his knees. His armor was instantly torn upon impact, as if the metal was nothing more than brittle bronze. Another slash came, then another and another. Blood poured from his wrists as he took each hit. More of his true form were seen on his wrists, the wisps coiled tightly around one another trying to provide some form of defense. The Northerner turned to Sybillen's back and slashed at it. He fell over on his stomach, coughing up blood. He tried getting up, but The Northerner brought up his sword, and slammed it into the middle of his back. Sybillen slumped over and laid there, black shadows floated out from all around him, his defense penetrated and his life fleeing.
"ENOUGH!"A female voice echoed around the almost empty arena. A black circle appeared on the ground in between them, and a silhouette rose from it. In mere seconds she was clad in her armor. She smiled, looking at the Northerner. "Well done. He is most pleased about your performance."
She replied. "You did well, far better than anyone else... Though I didn't expect you to last 5 minutes with him, let alone 10."He was barely there, his life resting on the edge from the onslaught. He hasn't met anyone with such untamed fury... such animalistic qualities. Who was this "He" that she talked about?
"Who...Who is..." He spoke in a raspy voice, blood pouring from his lips.
Alirina smiled with delight. "That, is our finest Creation yet." She looked over and whistled. "Guards, Take Sybillen to his room, I'll be there to hasten his recovery shortly." With that, two guards rapidly marched from the gates and lifted Sybillen's body. They exited the arena. More guards surrounded the Northerner. He too was worn from battle. His armor was cracked and sliced in some places, but not as many as his opponent whom was spared before he could finish. He turned to Alirina.
"Why did you intervene?" His eyes glowed orange with a burning anger inside of him.
She lowered her gaze at him, her icy cold stare would send a shiver down even this hardened warrior's body.
"We need him alive."

XPath pattern matching rules would be really cool :) one way that - in the past - we've got round needing more information without breaking the Rule interface is to expose more information as properties on digester. for example, getCurrentElementName() allows rules to automagically map on the basis of the current element name. i know that this smells like bad design but it does allow the Rule interface to be preserved. later, we might feel ready to break the interface, but maybe not just yet. - robert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:email@example.com> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:email@example.com>

Baku 2015 European Games yesterday welcomed Russian wrestling legend Buvaisar Saitiev as he visited Azerbaijan.
The three-times Olympic gold medallist – hailed as the world's greatest freestyle wrestler – met with Mr Simon Clegg, Baku 2015 Chief Operating Officer, and toured the European Games headquarters.
Mr Saitiev, who has also won six World Championship golds and six European Championships golds, visited several Baku 2015 venues as part of his visit.
Mr Clegg said: "It was an absolute honour to host Mr Saitiev here and to have him tour some of the venues that will host sport at next summer's inaugural European Games.
"Wrestling is one of the most popular sports here in Azerbaijan and Mr Saitiev is rightly considered a legend, so it was a pleasure to have him visit and share his world-class experiences with our team."
Mr Saitiev dominated the 74 kilogramme category in freestyle wrestling for more than 10 years, winning gold at the Olympic Games in Atlanta 1996, Sydney 2004 and Beijing 2008.
One of the most decorated Russian athletes of all time, he was awarded the prestigious Order of Friendship by the Russian Federation.
Mr Saitiev said: "It was a great honour to visit the Baku 2015 European Games headquarters and to meet with the team to hear the latest on all of their preparations for next year.
"The first ever European Games will be a landmark event that will be celebrated by the whole continent, and I am looking forward to seeing both elite Russian and European athletes competing in these wonderful venues."
Wrestling will take place over six days at Baku 2015, with 480 athletes competing for 24 medals in the Freestyle and Greco-Roman disciplines in the Heydar Aliyev Arena.

Garden designers talk about the merits of using borrowed landscape, which is fine and dandy if you are surrounded by idyllic views of green pastures and sculptural trees. If you live in town, however, chances are that your outlook is more high-rise flats or the neighbour's extension — a view you would rather block than borrow.
"Privacy is the major issue for my London clients, because it's the most emotive," says Patricia Fox, of Aralia Garden Design. "I have a client who is obsessed with privacy and we've had to literally barricade her garden. It is overlooked by her neighbour, so the surveyor estimated the height of the neighbour's window, and I worked out a way to screen it out, by creating a double hedge.
First we're installing a two-metre evergreen hedge, and then we'll plant a pleached (trained) evergreen hedge inside that, which has two metres of bare stems with two metres of tree foliage on top. So essentially she will have a four-metre evergreen boundary.
For the hedge we're using yew, but photinia or laurel would work well too, and for the pleached hedge, we're going for holm oak, but Portuguese laurel would be a good choice as well. If you don't mind a barrier that isn't completely evergreen, you could have green or copper beech."
For a cheaper way of crowding out the hinterland, Fox suggests bamboo, because it costs little, grows fast and provides a lively barrier that rustles and moves in the wind. "Plants in five-litre pots are about two metres tall and grow so quickly that they will reach four metres within two years. The bamboo I use is Phyllostachys aurea, which has stems that turn golden-yellow in the sun. If you want it to bulk up quickly, plant 60-70cm apart.
"You will need to use a root barrier so it doesn't run all over the place, and you need to keep it irrigated, or else plant in a relatively moist spot."
Conifers are the easy screening option, but a solid wall of green or gold fir is bulky, not an object of beauty and can easily grow out of control. "Avoid leylandii at all costs," says Fox, "because it's totally unsuited for urban gardens. Instead, you could plant a series of the slimline juniper Skyrocket to divert the eye from an ugly view. Think of it as a vertical that takes the eye up, rather than beyond. My first choice for a small garden is the box-leaved holly Ilex crenata, which has an upright habit, makes a nice solid screen, and doesn't take up much width, as the depth is only about 30cm."
Sometimes all it takes to distract the eye from beyond the garden is a structure that keeps the focus firmly within. In a small Regent's Park garden that garnered Fox a major design award, she erected a custom-made metal canopy that straddles the width of the space, from wall to wall; lattice trellis covers the canopy to encourage climbers.
"A ceiling of any kind in the garden anchors the space, so it doesn't visually 'leak'," explains Fox. "Even a small ceiling, like the canopy of a ready-trained parasol tree, has a similar effect. You can find holm oak, photinia or tilia, for instance, all with a clear two-metre stem, but with a head height of 30-40cm and a width of at least 1.2 metres."
There are situations, too, where you might not only want to borrow the landscape, but bring it right into your garden. "If you're surrounded by large trees," says Fox, "embrace that, rather than fight it. Choose something similar so, for example, if next door has a huge cherry tree, you could plant a more modest cherry, such as Prunus serrula, that doesn't get too big. Not only will you be bringing in a piece of the surrounding landscape, planting a tree will make your garden look larger, too."

Hello from the Old North State
My name is Christopher, and my wife Inez and I live in Apex, North Carolina, an outer suburb of Raleigh that is next to Cary. We have a 1.5 story house in a fairly new subdivision. The NCDOT is currently building the Outer Loop around Raleigh. The section nearest us should be completed in 2012, so you will be able to get from Apex to Research Triangle Park in about 15 minutes.
In light of all that, we are trying to make improvements to our house for sale or rent in the next few years. At the same time, we want to do projects that make living in our home more pleasant.
I am fairly handy, but certainly no licensed contractor. I am looking to do home improvement projects that make dollars and sense for our location. So, I am looking forward to seeing what I can learn from others on this site. In the meantime, I have started chronicling what we have done ourselves at our own small blog called, myhomeupgrades.com. Please feel free to post a comment there to let me know what you think, ESPECIALLY if you have done a similar project differently or better.
P.S. So far, a whole bunch of folks have looked at the post I did about adding an external vent for our kitchen microwave hood: Vent Microwave Range Hood through External Wall.

She's a Robot, not a Ho-bot!Here's a preview thanks to Marvel. Gotta say it makes sense to not send in humans to explore the Zombie universe.
The monster hit shambles on! The intrepid robot heroes Machine Man and Jocasta have journeyed into the Zombieverse to secure the one item needed to save the Marvel Universe from undead infestation – but first they have to blast their way through the flesh-eating hordes of the Zombie Kingpin of New York! That's right, writer Fred Van Lente (INCREDIBLE HERCULES) and artist Kev Walker (ANNIHILATION: NOVA) are going to reveal what happened during the five-year gap at the end of the original MARVEL ZOMBIES!

Indore, Jan 20: Four years have passed but the country has not learnt any lesson from the horrific Dec 16 Delhi gangrape case. Protests, debates, dharnas were held across the country over security of women and children in India. However, there's no improvement till now.
Now, a 4-year-old girl has been raped in a moving school bus. The incident took place in Ujjain district in Madhya Pradesh on Tuesday, Jan 19.
[Details of Dec 16 Delhi Gangrape Case]
Madhya Pradesh police arrested the accused who has been identified as Mahesh Baagwaan, the conductor of the school bus.
According to police sources, the accused sexually exploited the girl when other students got off the bus. However, role of the bus driver is yet to be probed.
After reaching home, the girl narrated the entire incident to her parents who later filed a police complaint against the conductor. The girl was taken to hospital for medical tests.
Lately, news about sexual assaults, rapes of school kids inside school premises in different places of the country had surfaced. Children are no longer safe anywhere.
In Dec 16 case, a 23-year-old girl was gangraped in a moving bus. She was gangraped by six men and later was thrown out of the moving bus. The incident had shattered the country.

Ol' S...S...Snapbeak!
It felt strange, going to see a dragon in the daylight. But the darkness continued obstinately to drain from the sky, and the birds woke and sang in response, and by the time the old grandmother (who seemed to have the stamina of an ox; she moved at least as fast as their yaeger bodyguards, if not faster) drew to a halt it was full daylight, and pleasantly warm.
"Here," announced the Grandmother, leaning on the gnarled stick she carried and peering intently forwards. Drakon, hovering just behind her, blinked; for a second he could see nothing but a wall of greyish rock, rearing unexpectedly up out of the trees- and then Alastor shifted and let through a sunbeam that struck the 'rock' and brought out a trillion shifting tones of bronze and highlighted the fact that there...were...scales.And, quite suddenly, an eye.
It was an eye bigger than Drakon's head and the colour of the flawless sapphires the young Drakon had once seen locked away in the Royal Treasury. It blinked once, twice, slowly and lazily. Behind him, the prince heard his father mutter a curse.
The dragon yawned.
Rows of teeth as sharp as knives, the shortest the length of a human's forearm. A burning red cavern of a mouth, damp and hot. Despite himself, Drakon rocked backwards in primal fear. Even the yaegers blanched. But the Grandmother stood as steady as a rock.
"Aged one," she said, her voice rising loud and clear, the words strangely incongruous coming from someone who, in normal circumstances, would be seen as aged enough herself to deserve that term of respect. "I bring a King who is past his prime and a King just entering his. I seek your advice, and your help."
The dragon breathed a sigh. A gust of warm wind rocked the trees at the edge of the clearing which, Drakon began to realise, must be far more immense than it appeared.
"I have seen kings aplenty come and go," said Old Snapbeak, in a voice that sounded like the grumbling of a volcano on the edge of eruption. "Wherefore hast thou brought me two to disturb my rest?"
"There are events of great portent occuring in the land," persisted the Grandmother, mimicking the dragon's profoundly formal tone. "This young King be of our blood. You know we would not disturb thy rest if it were not of great import."
The dragon rolled that great sapphire eye around and looked at Drakon, who tried not to flinch.
"I have seen events of great portent aplenty come and go," he said, indifferently. "This tiny kinglet will be no different."
"The prophecies are clear," declared the Grandmother. "Should he become king, he will usher in a Golden Age. Should he fail, this great Empire which has stood in peace and prosperity for one hundred and forty-six years will shatter and fall and all will be turmoil."
The sapphire eye rolled to stare at her. She stood, unmoved.
"Turmoil passes, as do Golden Ages. Thine enthusiasm does thee credit, however, and there has been little in the way of interest in these latter days, save for an impudent owl-man to whose tail-feathers I gave a roasting, and he was of little moment. What advice seekest thou?"
The Grandmother turned to Drakon expectantly. The boy blinked, taken unawares; he had not thought he would be asked to actually say anything. Desperately he scraped together what he remembered of the ancient formal speech, and asked the only thing that occurred to him.
"A battle is brewing. These brave yaegers will meet with those in scarlet cloaks and the perverted prince who leads them. I humbly ask thou-willst thou undertake to spy for us?"
There was a pause. Alastor shut his eyes and prayed that his son's foolishness would not doom them all. And then- a rumbling gurgle that made the ground shake beneath their feet. Old Snapbeak was laughing.
"You are impudent, human!" returned the dragon, with amusement to match his immense size. "To ask one such as I to 'spy'-to leave aside the plain fact that a creature of my size could not fail to be seen-is surely far below my dignity. But because you asked-because you had the courage to ask- I shall indeed. And I shall endeavour to aid you in other ways also. First, I shall heave aloft to spy-" another rumbling gurgle of laughter, the word seemed to enetertain him greatly-"-the lie of the land."
Abruptly the great head lifted from the ground and Old Snapbeak stood upright on all four legs. He was truly vast-the tallest man standing on the saddle of the largest horse in the Empire could not have touched his lithe bronze-scaled belly-but he was also beautiful. Drakon almost gaped as two immense wings unfolded and with one beat, two beats, seeming almost effortless, lifted the dragon up and away into the sky.
Once he had dwindled to nothing more than a speck, the Grandmother turned on Alastor. She did not even look at Drakon.
"You taught your son poorly," she snapped, displeasure written all over her seamed face, and with that strode away once again into the trees. The stoic yaegers followed without change of expression, although the one that seemed the youngest flashed Drakon what was almost a smile as he went past.
Alastor breathed out.
"Well son, I would say that today was not your finest moment," he said, still staring at the huge clearing where the dragon had lain. "Sent away all of our protectors and cheeked a dragon who could have eaten us all and still been hungry-I think we shall leave these episodes out of the history books!"
Drakon looked at his feet, face burning with humiliation. He couldn't believe he had just tried to reduce a creature of such magnificence to a mere spy, and it did not particularly help that Old Snapbeak had seemed to find it so funny.
"I am sorry, father. I...I will not be so foolish again."
Alastor looked at his son, who had tried so hard and lost so much in recent weeks, and smiled. He put his rough hand on the boy's shoulder and patted it, then abruptly pulled him into a hug. Drakon, surprised but gratified, hugged back.
"You are still learning, son. And you did it, did you not? We have a dragon on our side, because of you-because he liked your spirit, lad. That's nothing to be ashamed of."
"The Grandmother is cross with me," came Drakon's voice, somewhat muffled as his face was still buried in his father's chest.
"Ah, one thing you'll learn my lad in your dealings with these people is that Grandmothers are always cross with someone," Alastor told him cheerfully. "She will help us nonetheless. She was probably just as scared as I was-and I can tell you, I was pissin' myself."
Snorting with laughter despite himself, Drakon pulled back and firmly suppressed the tears of embarrassment that had threatened to spring up.
"So was I," he confided. "Shall we go back to camp?"
"Aye, I think we should," said his father warmly.

Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 'The Magical Place' Review
This week on Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., showrunners Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen told viewers of the show to expect answers in tonight's episode.
With that in mind, after this break there will be spoilers for 'The Magic Place'.
The conflict of chitauri metal kicks the hour off with a mysterious group of entrepreneurs, and a cringe worthy pop culture reference. The espionage sequence is a well paced introduction to the episode, that also reveals that it will be utilizing the new version of Victoria Hand. Hopefully, the cinematic universe version of the character will have something that will set her apart from the other bland agents populating this side of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Hand kicks Skye off the plane immediately interestingly enough, Melinda May does not vouch for the troubled heroine. When she reveals some of her different motives for doing so, this is justified from a writing standpoint. The later scenes involving Skye tread all over the map from cringe worthy to clever. She simply does not have enough charisma for the required amount of screen time allotted to her. Rob Huebel does a good job playing off of her energy.
All the other stuff is nice but, Coulson's story arc is really what we are all here for, as the man with no past troubles to give accurate information. The interrogator explains that the mysterious clairvoyant cannot see into the future of the hero making the past seem even more important. He is contained in what seems to be some sort of bomb shelter making things seem more sinister. The man attempting to spill the secrets of Coulson falls into the bland category reserved earlier for Ms. Hand. When the plot twist takes place, Reyna gets a promotion that seems to serve the episode better. Unveiling the mysterious past in an M.R.I. style machine is a really interesting premise. The mother of Phil is confirmed to be dead, which is just one of the many scenes that gives a different entrance point into the shattered Coulson. He goes back and forth between being fascinated in what happened to him, and scared of what his past could contain. It seems criminal that we are just beginning to see answers to a major question raised in the pilot.
The full extent of the interrogation room is scene, as the hexagons break free. The different men in suits all seem to sing the same bland tone, coloring the main jet subplot as uninteresting. When the answers finally start to arrive, viewers are treated to beautiful vistas in Tahiti. Visuals flash all over the place from a desolate lab room to an island paradise. The truth involving the brain covered in needles, is a truly horrific sight that will capture the imagination of the most jaded audience member. His painful regeneration process is something that will be hard to forget. The denial is a nice character beat that sweeps up the rest of the episode. Aftermath of the event is also quite interesting. The death was revealed to last for days. The acting of this penultimate scene, makes it one of the best moments in the show thus far. It's a shame that the moment following, is too obvious in some parts and vague in others to keep the interest levels high.
This episode had one interesting plot thread, and two bad ones. It also could have told this story much sooner, this is not the way to deal with an ongoing plot thread on modern television. The answers I sought came too little and too late.

If we assume that Barack Obama is not a stupid man then how could every single one of his foreign policy decisions have been so wrong.
Under the same assumption why would he ignore every single one of the recommendations given to him by his military experts?
(As an aside if military experts and advisors like Leon Panetta believed that the decisions being made in the Oval Office went against the national security interests of the United States, why didn't they resign in protest rather than follow along like the lemmings that they are?)
Staying with the same train of thought why is he doing whatever he can to weaken the United States militarily and economically at what could be the absolute worst possible time?
Finally, is it at all possible that in plain sight and under the guise of simply being an extremely bad President that Barack Obama has achieved what conspiracy theorists would say has been his goal of not only aiding Islamic extremists but to slowly and surely destroy the fabric of our country as well?
I've heard dumber things as ISIS grows, we do absolutely nothing of substance (unless useless rhetoric counts) and another even more dangerous terrorist group is said to wait in the wings.

Kololo Game Reserve, situated in the Waterberg area
The Waterberg is a beautiful nature area with a wide variety of landscapes and wildlife. The area has been declared a biosphere reserve by the UNESCO. Kololo Game Reserve is a member of the 'Waterberg Biosphere' project, which means that the reserve must meet strict requirements in order to protect nature. These requirements include that one ensures that the original state of the park is maintained, that there are economic and ecological measures for protecting nature, and that work is being done to combat local poverty in which education plays an important role.
The Waterberg is a geographical wonder which supports a biome of some 14 500 square kilometers and encompasses vast tracts of bushveld, punctuated with clusters of trees and tall savannah shrubs. Mountains, gorges, cliffs, open fields, wetlands, streams and rivers, give rise to a rich diversity of flora which supports the animals and birds that thrive in this area.
The animal and plant life on Kololo Game Reserve
The magnificent diversity of the Waterberg is evident both in the natural environment and in the facilities and attractions. Kololo Game Reserve spreads over 3000 hectares of untouched African bush which consists of open savannah grass plains, thick bushveld, mountains and valleys, making it the ideal habitat for a wide variety of game. View impala, kudu, rooi hartebeest, blue wildebeest, zebra, eland, nyala, waterbuck, giraffe, blesbuck and bushbuck as well as smaller species such as duikers, mountain reedbuck, klipspringer, steenbok, bushpig and warthog. Bird watchers will enjoy over 300 species of birdlife which are indigenous to the area.
The landscape of Kololo is covered with an abundance of indigenous shrubs and trees. They form part of the backdrop of this scenic region and are an integral food source for the various animal species living in the area. There are 84 different species of trees listed. These include Ficuses, Combretums, Rhuses, Acacias, Maroela, various cultivar of Aloe and Tamboti. For the convenience of our guests, these trees are identified along some of the walking and cycling routes on Kololo.
Wild flowers and grasses abound and each season sees the bushveld covered with bright splashes of colour that will delight and inspire you. See Mother Nature at work as she changes her canvas along with the seasons. Approximately 500 species of plants have been recorded in the Waterberg plateau and provide rich vegetation on which the game and birdlife thrive.
For bookings and availability please email email@example.com or go to www.kololo.co.za.
Kololo Game Reserve is situated in the beautiful province of Limpopo, South Africa, in the heart of the Waterberg biosphere. Vast, peaceful and incredibly beautiful, this is a fascinating destination with a rich cultural legacy and a natural splendour.
A malaria-free area and home to a large variety of game, Kololo is a perfect safari destination. Visit neighbouring reserves and view the Big 5 - lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo - or enjoy a sneak preview over the fence, from the comfort of your chalet at Kololo.
Kololo has its own gate near the reception, which provides direct access to Welgevonden Game Reserve. Kololo therefore has a unique concept: the Big 5 and accommodation in a luxurious, comfortable lodge where only the safe wildlife roams free.
Accommodation features upmarket villa, positioned in the pristine bushveld so privacy and relaxation is guaranteed. Kololo is a popular Limpopo game reserve and is conveniently situated only 3 hours from Johannesburg International Airport.

Pins "N" Needles
Johnny was sprawled on the sofa as usual. Messy hair and his eyes were going square from watching too much T.V. They were fixed on that screen like some magnetic pull and his arse was bounded to the cushions like the suffocating love from an overbearing mother. He would jiggle his right leg, back and forth occasionally, to prevent himself from pins and needles. Occasionally he would let it pass and enjoy the sensation, a stupified grin would stretch across his face as he became aware of the tingling, gathering from his foot and slowly spreading up his leg.
You could not help but feel a little sorry for Johnny, sprawled in front of the television. There was a beautiful sense of despondency about him, say what you want, he was still a pretty intelligent bloke. It raised concerns for his parents undoubtedly. They would hassle him, his father often persuading to go outside and experience things, live in the real world. His mother would be the soft touch, asking about his plans for the evening or suggesting days out. Neither of this worked for Johnny.
One day he was lying on his favourite sofa, opened book at his side, glass of beer on the floor, when suddenly he felt that sensation. He thought deep and hard about this, the brain cells raced to make that decision. Shall I let them in? It was not much of a brain teaser for Johnny, "I will let them in!" On that note the fuzziness took over his toes, there.... there was that stupified grin. He liked this feeling, he was very fond of it. It was like having a loving companion gently massaging his foot. He jiggled his right leg back and forth taking in every inch of this sensation. It gathered up his leg, gently massaging. Suddenly Johnny screamed out in pain. His parents ran in only to seeing him twisting and writhing. "What! What's wrong the both yelled."
What was a nice tingling sensation had turned into a dark and evil grip tightening round his leg, but his parent's could not see this. They could not help poor Johnny.

Kauai firefighters rescued an injured woman at Kalalau who had signaled for help by scrawling "SOS" in the sand.
A pilot with Mauna Loa Helicopters spotted the message, which was accompanied by a red flag, and called police around 3 p.m. Saturday.
A helicopter team landed on the beach and were directed to an area above a set of pools about two miles away. The rescue specialists returned to the air and searched for the woman until another person waved them down and informed them that the woman was about 100 feet above a nearby stream.
The team established a landing zone nearby, located the woman and airlifted her to Waimea Canyon Park, where she was transferred to the care of waiting paramedics who then transported her to Kauai Veterans Memorial Hospital.

Pre-Opening Soy Complex Market Report
January soybeans were trading 4 cents lower late in the overnight session but traded as much as 10 3/4 lower early. China futures were down 0.9%, and traders indicated that comments from the Chinese Premier that the government would continue to try to cool the property market helped to pressure. While equity markets in Asia were mixed during overnight trading, stock indices in Europe are generally lower this morning. Early indications are that US equity markets will open lower. The US Dollar is stronger against most of the major currencies this morning, although posting a small loss versus the Yen. The Greek Prime Minister and opposition leaders agreed on the formation of a new caretaker government, with a new head of state expected to be chosen today. A private survey of UK housing prices during October was up 1.2%, higher than market forecasts. Euro zone Retail Sales during September were down 0.7%, weaker than expectations. The only major US economic number to be released today will be a September US Consumer Credit reading at 2:00 PM. November soybean deliveries totaled 261 overnight as compared with just 7 contracts on Friday. Outside forces appear somewhat weak this morning, but a strong recovery from overnight lows for gold and energy markets is an offset to the equity market weakness. Traders see soybean weekly updates for crop progress showing harvest near 95% complete. Ideas that China will be restocking vegetable oils and soybeans has provided underlying support. Positioning ahead of the USDA report for Wednesday morning may keep the trade choppy today. Traders see yield near unchanged from last month's report, but due to a lower export outlook, ending stocks are expected to increase by 20-25 million bushels from last month's estimate of 160 million bushels. World ending stocks may also inch higher as traders see higher production for Brazil. Weather in South America looks favorable for crop development, which is seen as a negative force. Ukraine officials indicated that losses from severe dryness could be near 30% for the 2012 winter crops, which might be considered a longer-term supportive force for soybean oil. Black Sea region oils helped to pressure the vegetable oil markets this year. The Commitments of Traders reports as of November 1st showed non-commercial traders were net long 53,139 soybean contracts, down 10,438 contracts for the week. The selling trend is seen as a short-term negative force. Commodity index traders held a net long position of 161,785 contracts, up 5,648 for the week, and this helped to offset the non-commercial selling. For meal, non-commercial traders were net short 19,176 contracts, an increase of 4,419 contracts for the week. Fund traders building a larger net short is seen as a bearish trend. Non-commercial and nonreportable traders combined held a net short position of 15,861 contracts, up 3,398 for the week. For soybean oil, Non-Commercial traders were net short 16,616 contracts, an increase of 2,264 for the week. Commodity index traders held a net long position of 79,076 contracts, down 1,330 for the week. January soybeans closed 6 1/4 cents lower on the session Friday and managed to close down 5 cents for the week. A bearish tilt to outside market forces, uncertainty over the financial condition of Europe and a lack of supportive news on the US economy helped spark the early setback, but the market was well supported on the early break to trade just slightly lower on the day into the mid-session. Indications that China may be restocking soybeans and soybean oil helped to support. Palm oil pushed to near 7-week highs, and this also helped support, while November soybean deliveries were light. Deliveries jumped to 261 contracts this morning. The Brazil crop is expected to be well over 50% planted.

- 2 x 2.5" Drive to 3.5" Bay
Some manufacturers place restrictions on how details of their products may be communicated.
Didn't solve the problem 05/01/2013
This review is from: Nippon Labs HDB-250 2.5" HDD/SS Metal Bracket Black Color
Good quality metal piece.
There is no way to mount the bracket to the removable disk drawers in my Antec case. To be useful, it needs to have holes in the bottom that align with the bottom mounting holes in a 3.5 inch drive not just the sides.

The End of The Newlywed Notebook
Yes, you read that right.
Unfortunately, I have made the heart-wrenching decision to stop blogging here at TNN.
Let me tell you this has certainly not been an easy decision by any stretch of the imagination. As I've said over and over again I LOVE blogging. I've learned so many life skills by blogging in everything from all that it takes to have and run your own business, to financial and social skills, to even some advanced technological skills. I've made so many amazing friends through blogging too, and for all of those things I will be forever grateful.
I've really been thinking hard about this for the past few weeks, but if I'm really honest with myself I've probably been toying around with the idea for much longer than that. I've been a "blogger" for over 3 years now…it's what I know how to do and a big part of who I am. But I need to do what's right at this point for me and for my family. I need to actually spend time with my husband again. I need to focus more on my health, especially as we gear up for my big surgery in a few weeks. I need to look forward to the weekends and spend them being lazy with my husband or doing things we love like working on the house, instead of feverishly trying to burn through all the list of things I either have to do for my blog or things I've been neglecting because of it.

The Keyboard Matrix Explained
To discuss the contents of this article, please visit the discussion thread at the Highly Liquid Forum.
Example Key Matrix
The matrix is connected to the MPU by "select" or "common" lines, which are MPU outputs, and "data" lines, which are MPU inputs. To monitor the keyswitch states, the MPU sends a brief pulse to each select output, one-at-a-time. Each pulse "selects" a group of keys. Any closed keyswitches in the group will allow the pulse to pass thru to the data lines, which are "read" by the MPU. All of the keys are read continuously, many times per second. This allows the MPU to respond almost instantly to keyswitch state changes.
There are two categories of key matrix distinguished by the polarity of the select signal. In an "active-high select" keyboard, the state of each data line is low (0V) by default. The select signal is a 5V pulse. In a "active-low select" keyboard, the state of each data line is high (5V) by default. The select signal is a 0V pulse. Figures 1 and 2 below are examples of simple keyboard matrices. Each is a "2/2″ select/data configuration for a 4-key keyboard. In practice, keyboards will have a larger number of select & data lines. Typical 32-key configurations are 4/8, 8/4, or 6/6. 49-key keyboards often use a 9/6 matrix. The maximum number of keys supported by a matrix configuration is governed by the following equation:
k = s * d
Where k is the maximum number of keys, s is the number of select lines, and d is the number of data lines. Note that each keyswitch is accompanied by a series diode. This diode prevents a potentially damaging short-circuit between select outputs. It also allows the MPU to accurately detect the key states when multiple keyswitches are closed.
Figure 1: "2/2 Active-High Select" Keyboard Matrix and Select Signals
Example Keyswitch States and Data Waveforms
MIDI Retrofit: "Faking" the Data
To trigger a note, the UMR2 monitors the select signals of the host keyboard's MPU. When a select pulse occurs, the UMR2 injects a corresponding "faked" keypress signal into the data lines. To the host MPU, this signal is indistinguishable from a manual keypress. Installing the UMR2 therefore involves identifying the select and data lines in the host keyboard, determining which select scheme is used ("active-high" or "active-low"), and connecting the UMR2 accordingly. For many keyboard models, the connections have already been tested and documented. For other models, installation may be possible after a bit of inspection as described below. Please visit the UMR2 forum for more information.
Identifying a Keyboard's Matrix Scheme
A keyboard's select and data lines are typically connected from the main PCB to the keyswitch PCB via a ribbon cable. With a help of a continuity tester, the pins of the ribbon cable can be traced to the contacts of the keyswitches. Select lines are typically tied to groups of adjacent keys. Each data line will be connected to one keyswitch in each group. A few keyboard models differ from this convention. When in doubt, it is wise to use an oscilloscope to identify the select and data lines with certainty.
The keyswitch PCB of the Casio MT-210 is used as an example below. The diodes in Figure 9 serve the same function as the diodes in the schematics above. Their polarity provides a clue to the polarity of the select pulse used: review the connection of the diodes in figures 1 and 2, with respect to the data lines. The keyswitch PCB of the Casio MT-210 is shown in figures 10-13 below. 8 select lines are connected to groups of 6 keys each. The 9th select line is connected to a single key. Note the keyswitch diodes on the underside of the PCB. The anodes are connected to the data lines. This indicates an active-low select configuration. If observed with an oscilloscope, the select waveforms will appear similar to those shown in Figure 2. The UMR2 is configured accordingly.

Breakfast was good and reasonably priced, but it took us at least an hour for a simple breakfast on a Saturday at about 10:30am.
Really delicious, fresh breakfast. My egg burrito was delicious. The fresh juices are amazing. The owner and server were both very nice. Great prices, great food!
We decided to stop in the morning of our wedding. (Recommended by Costa Bela - Justin). Jeff and staff made our morning. Came over and talked with us. Shared history of location and how he pursued him dream to fulfill ownership of El Carey. Gave me motivation to follow mine in Costa Rica.
Needless to say, food was amazing.... French...
Stayed close by and stopped here for breakfast before our horse back riding excursion. It was fast and delicious. Cant wait to come again.
Stopped in for a quick brekkie and coffee. Ended up staying a long time having awesome food coffee and good chats with all that worked there. Great place and would definitely eat there again if in the area
We stopped by El Carey on the way out of town for a quick breakfast and we were very impressed. The pancakes were amazing as well as the rest of the meal but what impressed us even more was the friendliness of our server/owner. He provided incredible service and was genuinely friendly. Did I mention the pancakes were amazing? Do...
Bajuras Creole is the newly named establishment where El Carey was founded.

Same great location and service. Check them out and you will return!! Shown in picture,...
I visited El Carey while on vacation with friends for a wedding. It is a great local spot for breakfast or lunch. The portions are great, pretty large, and the price is great. They also have delicious fruit juices which I highly recommend.
This isn't El Carey Cafe any longer, but the guy who runs it now, Carlos, is so nice and the food he cooks is amazing. I had the special of the day. He sliced potatoes and deep friend them, then he sautéed them with tomatoes, green peppers and onions. Topped with 2 eggs anyway you want them, dirty or clean,...
I'm no stranger to the Carey. I love their pancakes their natural juices and their relax don't hurry your day atmosphere. This time I got here not expecting that it would be open but to my surprise it was. It's under new management and renovating the area.
The taste was great and the all natural passion fruit juice is like...

Can Frank Gehry Avoid Repeating Downtown Los Angeles' Mistakes?
Jack Skelley writes about the high hopes and potential pitfalls of the proposed $650 million Grand Avenue project, which recently received new life with a Frank Gehry design for a parcel next to the already-iconic Disney Hall.
"But let's also remember the problem that Grand Avenue was supposed to solve. Presently, the Music Center and Disney Hall preside over dead streets. For a cultural complex, it sadly lacks the street activity such a landmark should enjoy. Instead, concert-goers drive into underground garages, escalator up to the theaters and scoot back to their cars to return home."
Skelley claims that while other parts of Downtown—like the Historic Core and the Arts District farther east—have thrived, Grand Avenue's mix of cultural and office uses has not benefitted from the increased attention. "The question is whether Gehry and the other mega projects can, starting from scratch, capture the magic Downtown is already generating. Will they selfishly corral pedestrians? Will they be bunkers and monoliths? Will L.A. commit the same old errors?"
