Katy Perry Offers Theme Song for Hillary Clinton Presidential Campaign
She's scored plenty of success penning ditties for herself and now Katy Perry wants to use her hit song prowess to help Hillary Clinton get elected as the first female President of the United States.
While chatting at a promotional event for Clinton's new book "Hard Choices," the "Hot N Cold" songstress put it out there that she'd be more than happy to craft a campaign tune if need be.
Katy tweeted, "I told @hillaryclinton that I would write her a 'theme' song if she needs it…" along with a photo of them both (Aubrey Plaza photobombed them, if you look closely!).
Clinton wrote back, "Well that's not a Hard Choice. You already did! Keep letting us hear you Roar."

Your day is FULL of Emotion. Make sure it's captured how YOU remember it!
I love capturing your story as it unfolds so the emotion, love, joy, and expressions are natural, real, captured in it's raw and natural form. You can expect to have a great time and be 100% confident your memories are in good hands and you'll not only enjoy your experience but have beautiful spotless images and pictures to remember your day, and your love years down the road.
I'm based in Atlanta but love traveling and book a number of engagements around and outside of the United States every year.
What was your favorite wedding photo?
This has to be a trick question, because there is no way we could have ever picked out just one favorite picture. We can not even make up our mind on which picture to put on the cover of our album because Tessa made it completely impossible to just be able to pick one.
How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits?
We hardly noticed Tessa at all, but when the pictures came out, we saw just how talented she was in capturing all of our special moments. We wanted candids for the theme of our pictures and she did an amazing job doing just that. She captured all of our moments just as we had imagined it.
What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers?
Our wedding photo package included an engagement session, bridal session, unlimited day of the wedding, CD with pictures, a second photographer the day of the wedding, two professionally matted 8'10 prints and a bridal $300.00 print credit.
And there were lots of other little extras from Tessa that made our experience even more special. One of which was a small album of wedding pictures TWO WEEKS later!
How did the photographer make you and family comfortable?
We had a fairly small wedding with a very close-knit family and friends. And not for one moment did we ever notice a photographer taking pictures of our special day. Through out our whole engagement and wedding planning process Tessa was no longer just our photographer but one of our close friends. She was professional, dependable, creative, very attentive to detail, and most of all, made our experience FUN!
What was your favorite wedding photo?
I had engagement photos completed. I would never be able to choose one. I have a feeling I will feel the same about my wedding photos.
I do want to say something that is not asked here:
I was a bride without a photographer. I was kicking myself for not going with my gut....it was a bad idea to contract with a friend for my wedding photos. After she cancelled on us, I was disappointed in my friend, but I was also desperate to find another photographer...and quick. I had just a few months and thought everyone would be booked. Our circumstances are special...we are getting married in the Bahamas. I placed an ad on Craig's List and filtered through almost 70 hits! It was so overwhelming at first because there were so many to choose from; many good, many bad. When I saw Tessa's work, it became clear to me that she had to be our photographer. It was then that I finally trusted my gut, and so far, I couldn't be happier. ~ Nikki
How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits?
During our engagement shots, she made us feel so comfortable. Our pictures are so real, so authentic.
What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers?
DVD, engagement pictures, two photographers
How did the photographer make you and family comfortable?

I like to stop suddenly in the middle of the street while we're crossing it and poop in front of oncoming traffic. My dog brother, Percy, and my "mom" have to wave nicely at the cars as they wait for me to finish. Mom always picks it up, too.
Nobody Saw That!
He was by the tub, turned around really fast, and hit his nose on the toilet bowl.
He's fine, don't worry- he tried to play it off like nothing happened.
An apple a day keeps the…eww!!
My name is Oscar and I pooped on an apple on the kitchen counter. It might have been to trick my humans or just because I had to go. Either way my human wasn't very happy.
This is Molly. When she gets really excited and wants to play, she will run around the house at full pug speed and sometimes knock her baby brother down. She then attacks him with kisses. They both love this game!
A little dab'll do ya
While we were sleeping Lulu decided she would take a bingo dabber off the coffee table and chew it. There was green dabber all over the white carpet. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the look on her face and her knowing what she did was bad.
Lulu is our 5 year old bulldog and love to get herself into trouble.

Toronto's 2016 Trans March Had The Biggest Turnout In The World
Toronto's 2016 Pride set firsts and broke records left, right, and centre.
June was Canada's first ever Pride Month, a slew of drag kings and queens broke the Guinness world record for "Largest Drag Artist Stage Show", and on Friday, Toronto hosted the world's largest-ever trans march.
An initial police estimate reported by the Toronto Star said 4,000 people participated, but an updated count has put the number at a whopping 11,000, according to BlogTO.
This year's march was led by Black Lives Matter Toronto, which also participated in the other Pride processions including the Dyke March and the official Pride parade Sunday.
Toronto Police estimates 11,000 here for the #TransMarch. Amazing turnout. Beautiful community! #PrideTO pic.twitter.com/gBMwkiY9HT
— Kristyn Wong-Tam (@kristynwongtam) July 1, 2016
The Trans March was started by community members in 2009 due to the lack of representation of trans, Two-Spirit and genderqueer people in Toronto's usual Pride programming, BlogTO reports.
In memory of the victims of the Orlando nightclub shooting where 49 people were killed, marchers staged a 10-minute sit-in.
Take a look below for photos from the massive event!

Also on HuffPost:
Hanlan's Point: Where It All Started (1971) Toronto Pride can trace its origins to a picnic. Hanlan's Point, a beach in the Toronto Islands, was the site for the first public celebration for gay Torontonians. Organized by Toronto Gay Action Now and the Community Homophile Association of Toronto (CHAT), 300 people gathered for what became an annual tradition of Pride parties on the Toronto Islands.
First Pride Week (1972) Toronto Gay Action organized the first Pride Week in 1972. In protest of police harassment and a lack of legislature protecting the rights of sexual identity, CHAT (University of Toronto's Community Homophile Association of Toronto) hosted Gay Pride Week events in 1974, while the Gay Alliance Towards Equality (GATE) ran the Gay Pride March. Both went unrecognized by the City of Toronto.
A "Kiss-In" At Yonge And Dundas (1976) After two gay activists were arrested and found guilty on an indecency charge for kissing on the street (doing so for a photo to go with an article on homophobia), 20 people protested the ruling by taking to downtown streets and making out. No arrests were made.
Gay Asians Toronto (1979)
Bathhouse Raids (1981) On February 5 1981, Toronto Police raided four bathhouses and arrested more than 260 gay men as part of Operation Soap, leading to mass outrage and kicking off several gay rights rallies. These unwarranted searches were the tipping point for a growing sense of persecution felt by Toronto's gay community. Operation Soap is the second largest mass arrest in Canada. In their arrests, police caused more than $35,000 dollars in damage (totalling around $100,000 if adjusted for modern value).
Gay Liberation Movement (1980's) Thousands of protesters poured into the streets following Operation Soap, with renowned locals such as author Margaret Atwood condemning the Toronto Police's actions. The gay liberation movement gained traction throughout the '80s, leading activists to advocate for structural change to homophobic and HIV-positive persecution, as well as for AIDS awareness.
Shifting Locations (1986) Toronto's gay community and Pride itself started to shift from frequenting Yonge St. bars, which were straight-owned, to convening in what is now the Church-Wellesley Village. Sexual orientation was included in the Ontario Human Rights Code in 1986.
Pride's First Grand Marshals Include NDP MP (1988) Pride began a tradition of grand marshals leading the Gay Pride Day Parade in 1988. At the time, the parade was not recognized by the City of Toronto and was not allowed to go past certain streets. Karen Andrews and NDP MP Svend Robinson were Toronto Pride's first marshals. Robinson, who had came out as gay two months before Pride, was the first Canadian politician to be openly gay while in office.
AIDS Memorial (1989) As parade-goers celebrated Lesbian and Gay Day Pride Day in 1989, a temporary memorial was set up for the first time in Cawthra Park. It listed more than 200 names who lost their lives to AIDS. Today, the Toronto AIDS memorial is a permanent tribute in Cawthra Square and lists more than 2,700 names.
First Official Pride (1991) 1991 marks the first year the City of Toronto would officially proclaim Pride Day.
Pre-Millennial Celebrations (1999) As its grown, roughly half a million people have been flocking to Toronto Pride each year.
Legalized Gay Marriage (2003) A court decision legalized same-sex marriage in Ontario in 2003, giving queer, gay and lesbian couples equal rights to marry. Same-sex marriage would become legal nationwide in 2005.
Israeli Apartheid Controversy (2010) Toronto Pride drew controversy when grassroots Toronto-based group Queers Against Israeli Apartheid (QAIA) was banned from the parade in 2010. The group, which had previously marched in Pride, had drawn concerns that the City of Toronto would revoke funding if they joined the parade. Ultimately, the ban was revoked and QAIA marched. The group dissolved in 2015.
Where's Ford? (2011) Former mayor, the late Rob Ford, raised eyebrows for snubbing Pride while he was in office, leading to accusations that Ford did not support queer and trans issues. It didn't help that he had been the only councilor to vote against a proposed shelter for LGBT homeless youth.
Liberals At Pride (2013) Prime Minister (then leader of the Liberal Party) Justin Trudeau walks with Ontario's premier Kathleen Wynne at Toronto Pride 2013. Wynne was elected as the leader of the Ontario Liberal Party in 2013, becoming the province's first female premier and the first openly gay premier in Canada.
Dyke March (2013)
Indigenous At Pride (2013) Michael Healy, who is a Blood Nation Blackfoot from Alberta, walks in Toronto Pride with other First Nations marchers.
Word Pride (2014) World Pride was Pride Toronto's biggest endeavour, with more programming and events running than before. The 2014 Pride March, Dyke March, and Trans March were the longest lasting Pride parades in Canadian history, with the general Pride March lasting over five hours. World Pride is held every five years, in a different city around the world. The next one will be in Madrid in 2017.
World Pride (2014)
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau At Pride (2015) Trudeau has been a frequent participant of Toronto Pride and Vancouver Pride in previous years. His 2016 Pride appearance will mark the first time a Prime Minister has marched in the Toronto Pride Parade.

Hello D.Lakshmanan.Abhilash,
For scoring higher marks you need to work hard, study daily and regularly for the whole year. You should remove the wrong concept from your mind that starting studies just 3-4 moths before the examination would suffice.
There is a detailed ISC Resource on this subject. Read this resource and get benefit out of it.

- #73960
- #73967Improve hand writing.
Don't try to by heart things study things in detail and do imagination while studying. Relate the study material with some thing so that you can remember while you writing the exam.
- #73990
- #74104
- #74128Here I am giving you some tips and trick to score good marks in the examination:- Get a good nights sleep before the test;do not study before three to four hours of starting the test;Read all the instructions carefully and try to answer all the questions.
For short answer questions leave the original answer once you decide about it whereas when it comes to multiple choice questions look for the opposites in the choices ,one of them would be probably correct.Rework the question and use the reworking as part of your written answer.Write neatly.
Before two month of your exams have all of your materials ready and in the place that you are going to study;study when its quiet;no music, no TV, No ipod ; do your most difficult subject fist or else you may never get to it;keep a calendar so that you know when a project is due or a test is going to be given;vocabulary is very important. Words have different meanings;you need to know the meaning for the subject that you are taking;study the relationship of things. How is the topic that you studied related to the unit that you are studying;your textbook has hints for you. Many books have important words or phrases in darkened or colored type, make sure that you know them thoroughly.
- #74291Firstly prepare well for the exam.
Be sure of the answers.
Few tips are.
Keep yourself calm during the exam.
Go through the question paper as soon as you get it and make a note of the questions to which you know the answers very well.
Start wirting the those answers which you are fully confident of; But before starting briefly recall all the points you know and need to be written in your mind quickly.
Answer in points and highlight the keywords.
Maintain neatness.
Try avoiding making scratches and markings.
- #75385Some simple tips to enhance studying and dealing with exam stress...
1.Find the right time: Students should experiment with different times of the day to find their best study time, but they should pick a time when they are alert and ready to concentrate.
2. Create a calming and productive atmosphere: An effective study area should have good lighting and ventilation, a comfortable chair, and a space large enough to spread out your materials. Listening to one's favorite music also helps.
3.Exercising or socializing during study breaks: Many schools have created events to help students cope with stress.
One month before - develop an exam revision timetable so that you cover all subjects every three days
Revise in chunks of an hour. Reward yourself for sticking to an hour with twenty minutes of music, TV or food Try to make this the same time of day
Switch off and move away anything that distracts you – computer, TV etc
For short answer questions leave the original answer once you decide about it whereas when it comes to multiple choice questions look for the opposites in the choices ,one of them would be probably correct.Rework the question and use the reworking as part of your written answer.Write neatly.
Put a sign on the door –Exam Winner Revising – Keep Out. Bring Food Later
Revise and practice in silence so you replicate exam conditions and you get used that that environment On the day
Get to bed early; do not stay up late revising. A good night's sleep will do you more good
- #76739there is no other way you can improve your marks other than studying hard. Studying will only solve your problem. Try and learn as much a syou can. Copying or trying any tricks wont help you at all. even though if they help you once and prove beneficial to you. i am sure you always would love to do in that way only.
but if you study hard and improve your exams you wont find any difficulties learning new things ever.If you are a student stying is the only thing you should do, playing is alwasy there. play a game with your studies too that which answer can be best remembered by you.
- #77080
- #77081
- #77082
- #77084
- #770859. It's not just a Firewall
FireWall-1 is a network device, so you'll have to know all about TCP/IP concepts like subnetting and which service uses which port. Trying to tackle firewalls without knowing TCP/IP is like trying to be a server administrator without knowing how to use a mouse and keyboard.
10. Plan your Studies
There is a wide variety of topics on the CCSA exam, so make sure you cover them all. Following the exam outline or a good book will help you stay on track, and ensure there are no surprises come exam time.
Best of luck on your studies!

- #77898Dear Freinds,
First of all i would like to say that there is no shortcut to increase the marks in exam. You have to work hard on your basics than only you can succeed.
Today a lot of material is available in the market and online which says to increase marks very quickly.These people are making money by just playing tricks.You know the coaching classes are opened for every student from the primary level and the parents are sending their children in these classes without knowing the reality.
You have to be sincere in our work afterall. I know these are regularly said by our parents also but this is ths FACT of life with which they have already gone.
At last i would say just have faith in yourself and you can do it easily.
With regards,
- #77909
- #77911sleep well...
dont worry about the exam..
have confidence in you...
you will surely get good marks..
- #78637Practice papers: Do these against the clock – learn how long it takes to do different kinds of
question. Follow the exam technique in the 'In the Exam' section
• Complete 'model answers' without a time pressure – 100% accurate, using text books and
notes. Revise from these as well course books
• Practise 'taking a picture' of diagrams in your head (and storing to your brain's hard disk!)
by staring at the diagram for 3 minutes, studying each line, number etc. Then cover it over
and see if you can draw it exactly, by putting the stored image on a screen in your mind's
eye. Zoom-in for more detail and compare the two diagrams when you have finished. Do
this daily until you can replicate accurately each time

- #79502hello..
first of all its not an easy task to score marks in exams.
It involves the following:
1.u should understand the concepts
2.practice writing to improve ur hand writing.whenever u write and c ,u will not forget the answers.
3.write and c all the key points to test whether u are able to remember the answers of the Q.
4.close all ur preparations 15min before.Enter the examnation hall 10 min before and be relaxed.
5.go to bed early in the night.Have atleast 6 hrs of sleep.
6.skim the questions first ,decide and then start writing.
7.Avoid strikings except in unavoidable situations.
present the paper neatly as possible.Presentation is more important than writng the answers.
8. start with the question which is known 100%.
9.put in 100% hardwork.dont read the unstudied answers at the time of entering the hall which will spoil the studied Q.
10.Have self-confidence.
- #79551hi friend
In the exam you'll be expected to answer questions on the subjects you studied in class, which means you'll need a full set of notes to revise from. If you missed some classes your notes may not be complete.
To make sure your notes are up-to-date, check your notes against the subject revision checklist given to you by your teacher. If the checklist shows you are missing notes on some subjects, ask your teacher which chapters of the subject text book you need to read and make notes on to fill in the gaps.

I am currently on vacation on a ski vacation in Colorado. Our condo is less than a quarter mile away from a Walmart. We were shopping for supplies on Easter morning and I decided to take a look at the ammo section. I was shocked to see some 9mm. I haven't seen 9mm or 22lr in months at my 2 local walmart's in Michigan. I was able to pick up the last 3 boxes of 9mm at $10.97 a box. I went back this morning before going skiing and they had 20 boxes of .22 LR. I was like a kid in a candy store. My wife and I picked up 6 boxes (225 rds each) for ourselves. My wife was excited that we can start shooting again with our daughter when we get back to Michigan. I plan on going back two more mornings hoping to stock up for spring shooting with the family. I already had a decent supply of ammuntion prior to all the crazyness. However, we have cut back on our range trips because I did not want to shoot what I could not replenish. I am no way going to pay crazy prices for ammo......just stayed patient!
Man, all these "I found ammo at Walmart!" thread are making me jealous. :( The local Wally Worlds around here are wiped clean. Along with all the Gander Mountains, Bass Pro Shops, Dicks, and all the LGSs (with the exception of one - but they'll only sell you two boxes of ammo if you're buying a gun at the time).
Glad it's coming back around, though (I hope...). :)
My local walmarts were cleaned out b4 all this went down. It's gonna be a long time b4 I see any ammo on the shelves. Sux!

I hope it's a sign that things are getting better. The man at Walmart said it will still be 8-11 months from being normal. However, they are seeing more ammo coming around. Still low quantity but still more coming around
As much as I hate Walfart I may have to go into one...

Just don't be silly and shoot it all up. Read the story of the Ant and the Grasshopper. Then be an Ant.
Awesome. Hope you have a great trip. If your flying... Make sure to check your airlines and TSA's guidelines for ammo in checked luggage. Southwest has a limit in the 10-14lb range. Ammo can also sure make your luggage hit the overall weight limit where they charge extra. I almost always am declaring a firearm so I'm not sure if you need to declare ammo by itself but that's worth finding out no doubt. If you have more ammo in weight that they allow a person to check in their luggage maybe dividing and having your significant other put some in their bag will help. I usually just use a shoebox with paper in any space and tape it closed. If the airline your flying is not ammo friendly... Consider going to an authorized UPS center and shipping it to yourself before you leave. I know the one in commerce city is if your flying out of Denver. Just don't want you to have any surprises or problems last minute as your trying to catch your flight home. Again, hope you enjoy your vacation.
I plan on shipping it ups back home to myself. Hopefully, I will be able to get a couple more boxes before the end of the trip.
Every Walmart I pass I stop and check for ammo. I get lucky some of time and I'm able to pick up something I can shoot.

As Benjamin Franklin left the hall in Philadelphia, he was asked, What kind of government have you given us, Dr. Franklin? He replied: A republic, if you can keep it.
My Walmart hasn't had ammo for over 3 months!
"The key to freedom is the ability to defend yourself"
11 LBS is the limit that you can have for ammunition in your checked bags. (11 LBS TOTAL not 11 LBS in each checked bag) It has to be either in it's original packaging or packing designed specifically for ammunition.
If you go the shoe box route chances are the TSA will still open the shoe box (Not the ammunition packaging) to inspect how it's being stored inside. I've had this happen to me several times while flying.
You don't need to declare the ammunition, but obviously if you are also checking a firearm that MUST be declared. You can have the ammunition inside the same hard sided storage case as a firearm just for future reference. It still needs to either be in the original packaging or an ammunition specific storage box. Magazines CAN NOT be used for storage /transport. If you do that the TSA will either confiscate them or will have you open the case and and re-secure them the appropriate way.
The only think I find at our Wal Mart is the guy behind the counter saying ... "we didn't get any ammo today", or "we only got shotgun shells", or "we are sold out of what we got".
I've got a gun feeling someone is slipping him cash under the table to be called when the good stuff comes in.

Wiz Khalifa Shares Private Photo Of Amber Rose In Her Lingerie With Her Cakes Out! [Photo]
Wiz Khalifa was issued an arrest warrant from the state of Texas earlier today, after missing a court date stemming from a misdemeanor marijuana-related arrest back in May. His 'Under the Influence' tour will be rolling through the Lone Star State for 2 stops next week, so he probably will want to take care of that before then. In the meantime, the Taylor Gang CEO let the world know he's certainly not stressing, as he uploaded a rather private photo of his gorgeous wife Amber Rose to Instagram. Too much booty to handle! Check the pic in the gallery.

text: How Prince Harry should propose to Cressida Bonas So why hasn't Prince Harry proposed to Cressida Bonas yet? Maybe he just doesn't know how. Luckily we have some ideas... 13th March 2014 Rex Features Three ways in which Prince Harry could propose to Cressida:Spell it out in the clouds - Because as well as shooting Hellfire missiles at terrorists in Afghanistan, the £12m Apache helicopter that Harry flies must be able to write 'MARRY ME CRESSY! in the Kensington sky. Backstage at Glastonbury - While Dolly Parton belts out '9 to 5' on the Pyramid Stage. 'Workin' 9 to 5,/What a way to make a livin'/Barely gettin' by/It's all takin' and no givin'…" Irony and all that. In the Poule au Pot - It's worked for generations of Sloanes before. If it 'aint broke… And three ways which Harry shouldn't even think about..In bed - Cressy needs to be thinking straight when the big moment comes (!) and someone wise once told us that proposing under the sheets can be confusing because 'it clouds the judgement.' Quite.While skiing - Terribly romantic idea, men always think. But she doesn't want a proposal. She wants a hot bath and an enormous vin chaud. In front of a roaring fire while staying overnight in a log cabin in Kenya - Yes, yes, it's remote, very private and knicker-droppingly romantic. But William's already done it.

Referred in Senate (03/22/2004)
[Congressional Bills 108th Congress] [From the U.S. Government Printing Office] [H.J. Res. 87 Referred in Senate (RFS)] 2d Session H. J. RES. 87 _______________________________________________________________________ IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES March 22, 2004 Received; read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary _______________________________________________________________________ JOINT RESOLUTION Honoring the life and legacy of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and recognizing his contributions on the anniversary of the date of his birth. Whereas President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was born in Hyde Park, New York, on January 30, 1882; Whereas his commitment to public service followed the example of his fifth cousin, the 26th President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt; Whereas sixty years ago, President Roosevelt became the only President of the United States elected to a fourth term in office; Whereas President Roosevelt fulfilled his promise to lead the Nation through the Great Depression by creating a series of New Deal programs that fundamentally changed the role of Government; Whereas President Roosevelt's leadership was instrumental in extending freedom and democracy around the globe and uniting the world confronted by tyranny and aggression; Whereas President Roosevelt unified and mobilized the American effort after the bombing of Pearl Harbor and World War II, encouraging patriotism and volunteerism; Whereas through his war time leadership, President Roosevelt directed the Government into the most productive partnership with private enterprise in the Nation's history by appointing top businessmen to run the production agencies, exempting business from antitrust laws, allowing business to write off the full cost of investments, and guaranteeing a substantial profit; Whereas as a result of his leadership, the United States was outproducing all the Axis and the Allied powers combined, contributing nearly 300,000 planes, 100,000 tanks, 2 million trucks, and 87,000 warships to the Allied cause; Whereas 2004 is the 60th anniversary of D-Day, which commemorates the largest air, land, and sea operation undertaken before or since June 6, 1944; Whereas in the spring of 2004, the National World War II Memorial will be dedicated in Washington, DC, to encourage Americans to celebrate and remember the contributions of President Roosevelt and the courageous men and women which were critical to the American war effort at home and American military successes overseas; Whereas President Roosevelt supported the effort to find a cure for infantile paralysis (polio), by which he had been paralyzed in 1921; in 1938, President Roosevelt founded the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, a national organization which raised funds to find a cure for polio; the following year, comedian Eddie Cantor asked the Nation to mail dimes to the White House to help the Foundation, and in one month, the White House received 2.5 million dimes; Cantor declared it ``A March of Dimes'' and, in 1979, the name became the lasting moniker for the Foundation; Whereas President Roosevelt established the polio foundation hospital at Warm Springs, Georgia, for the treatment of polio patients, which had a profound impact on scores of young Americans; Whereas in a broadcast launching the annual March of Dimes Campaign, President Harry S. Truman declared ``The fight to conquer infantile paralysis is an unfinished task of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. It must and shall be carried to complete victory.''; thanks to President Roosevelt and the March of Dimes, polio is largely now a thing of the past in America and worldwide eradication of polio is expected by 2005; Whereas Americans who encountered and conquered polio have benefited from the March of Dimes and from President Roosevelt's example of courage; Whereas Eleanor Roosevelt more than fulfilled her traditional duties as First Lady; Whereas she expanded the role, being voted the most admired woman in America and even called ``the First Lady of the Western World'' for her work on behalf of civil rights, women's rights, and human rights; she carried on the beliefs and ideals of her husband, serving as the foremost spokesperson for human rights around the world as the first chairperson of the U.N. Commission on Human Rights; Whereas President Roosevelt is loved and admired by millions of Americans and by countless others around the world; and Whereas a grateful Nation and world are better off because of President Roosevelt's inimitable leadership: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the Congress, on behalf of the American people, honors the life and legacy of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and recognizes his contributions on the anniversary of the date of his birth. Passed the House of Representatives March 17, 2004. Attest: JEFF TRANDAHL, Clerk.

No. 4
Since that Sunday morning early in October, I've hardly gone a day without talking to you. It's still amazing to think that a stranger could come to mean so much in such a short time. I told you more about myself in a few weeks then I'd ever told anyone else - they all had to learn the hard way.
Our friendship grew in just a few short days, and I knew that you liked me. I couldn't admit it to even myself, but I was starting to like you too, and I hated myself for it. I learned from my sister's mistakes: cheat once and you're done. It was my deepest fear then that I would become a hypocrite, that I wouldn't be able to stop myself.
I was torn about it, and I irritated all my friends, asking for advice... "I'm gonna do it." "I can't do it... It'll make me a terrible person." "I'm a terrible person if I don't do this, right?" Finally, it came down to one simple question.
The boy I was seeing, he sensed I was pulling away. We both knew we weren't going anywhere, but it wasn't until he felt he was losing me that he realized he cared more than he had known. But one day, he asked me anyway, "Do you still want to be with me?"
I have always prided myself on being totally honest with questions like these, and so I felt it was my duty to answer him honestly, too. That answer was no. He was sad, and I was sorry to hurt him, but there were no hard feelings, and in the end we were both better off. It was a quiet ending to a relatively short story, and that was all there was to it.
So while my feelings for you were developing, and we continued to grow close, I decided that, even though I liked you, what I needed most was to take a step back from relationships for a while. I didn't want to jump into anything so soon, and you understood that and felt the same way.
We would stay friends for the time being and get to know each other even more. That was the agreement. But every conversation we had, every time I even went near you, I was drawn in a little bit more. What I was feeling was far from love, but I also knew that I couldn't go more than an hour or two without thinking about you.

Awesome. Only PAR 6 (18th hole)I've ever played,& parred it twice. The views from some of the holes are incredible. Had a great time.
hp - 7/29/10
Although the course if very walkable, there are severe up and downhill holes with lots of blind shots. Also, be careful driving to the clubhouse from the front entrance, as the road runs perpendicular through the middle of 5 fairways before you arrive at the parking lot. I wonder how many cars get hit every week? Highlight: Hole 16 - one of the prettiest I've played in the Bay Area.

Neuronal circuitry of the lower urinary tract; central and peripheral neuronal control of the micturition cycle

A new presentation technique is introduced to describe the neuronal circuitry involved in the control of the uropoëtic system and its control mechanisms during the micturition cycle. This method is based on the preparation of flow charts and is applied to the discussion of four qualitative models which are derived from the literature. Opinions concerning the reflex arcs and supraspinal connections said to be involved in micturition and continence are different and sometimes contradictory. Little is known about how autonomic information from the lower urinary tract is relayed to supraspinal structures. Information about supraspinal (inter)connections and their function in micturition control is still fragmentary. The control mechanisms which terminate voiding are not totally clear. Moreover, the role of the pelvic floor musculature in the control of the lower urinary tract is probably underestimated. The flow charts presented in this paper contribute to the future design of a single complete qualitative model representing the general central and peripheral nervous connections and control mechanisms. Such a model would provide an approach for future research in neuromodulation and neurostimulation of the uropoëtic system and a reduced version could be used for quantitative modelling, e.g. in neural network simulations.

Military students get wet on the rocks' Hermanus NSRI activated
Military students from the Stellenbosch University Academy of Military Sciences based at Saldanha Bay had to be saved by the National Sea Rescue Institute on Friday after washing ashore - despite the calm conditions.
They were on a coastal tour from Port Elizabeth to Saldanha Bay raising funds for charity that includes land and sea teams of runners' cyclists and sea teams.
"It appears that this morning they were in calm waters off-shore of the Hermanus harbour when' according to eye-witness reports' one of the boats washed onto rocks and a second boat venturing close to the same rocks capsized.
"The cause of the boat washing onto the rocks is not known'" the NSRI report on the rescue stated.
Expanding on the rescue' the NSRI said its Hermanus duty crew were activated at 7.16am by the Transnet National Ports Authority following eye-witness reports of a pencil rubber-duck in trouble next to the New Harbour' Hermanus. An eye-witness reported people in the water and a boat washed onto rocks.
"It appears that one pencil rubber-duck had washed onto the rocks from unknown causes.
"A second pencil rubber-duck came close to the same rocks and capsized' according to the eye-witness.
"A third pencil rubber-duck was apparently able to tow the pencil rubber-duck that had capsized back out to sea' out of harms way' where it was righted and we believe that persons that had been thrown out of the rubber-duck when it capsized had managed to get back onboard."
The sea rescue craft Jaytee III and NSRI rescue crew responded directly to the scene.
However' "sea rescue craft were delayed in launching from the slip way at Hermanus harbour after it was found that those involved in this incident had partially blocked the launch slip way with their vehicles and a launch of sea rescue craft could only be achieved after they had moved their vehicles".
"On arrival on the scene we found all persons from the boat that washed onto rocks were safely ashore and not injured and we advised those involved to recover the boat off the rocks' where the boat had washed onto the rocks' and the boat was recovered off the rocks.
"The boat that had been capsized was attended to by those involved and it was brought into Hermanus harbour."
No one was injured in the capsizing.
"The cause of the boat washing onto the rocks is not known'" the NSRI said.

excerpt – Dancing Naked
It's like when your sperm is inserted into a woman's egg: You anticipate that the resulting product will have all the features you intended. You don't expect your child to be constituted differently from yourself. Blake mystified Terry. The boy, it seemed, had missed a link somewhere, suffered a DNA oversight that left him unprepared for the world. He was a turtle with no shell, a tiger with no claws, a fish with no gills. He could perform wonderfully, but was little interested in the spoils of victory. He easily over- achieved, and not once did he approximate his potential. His ample intelligence dragged him about, hither and thither—yes, hither and thither—after a thousand foolish pursuits, creations of fantasy. Blake wanted little to do with the real world.
Terry was Blake's father. He feared for his child's survival. What's a realist father to do with an idealist son? No, not simply an idealist son, an idealist-romantic son? A child who began a "Why not?" before considering "Why?" A child who completed school lessons under duress, and only to prevent recourse from parents and teachers? A child who wasted his mind drawing monsters and wizards, sketching satirical cartoons to amuse friends (satirical cartoons as early as the third grade)? A child who spent too much time reading books about lives no one lived, adventures no one could hope to experience? A child uncompetitive, un-driven by success and entirely willing to exchange tangible kudos, distinctions, and prizes, for whimsical notions as though trading real bills for Monopoly money?
During Blake's sixth-grade school year, Terry attempted to realign the boy's priorities. Terry and Blake had reached a critical juncture.
"I've just learned something I don't understand," Terry tried to tell his son. Blake was in the livingroom awkwardly gyrating his pre-pubescence to music; he was bent on learning to dance to the Smashing Pumpkins. His eyes were squeezed closed in concentration or meditation, Terry could never tell which. The music was too loud. Rayne sat cross-legged on the floor between the couch and the coffee table correcting essays. She paused occasionally to yell out dance suggestions. Looking up by accident (certainly she couldn't have heard Terry speak), she noticed her husband was trying to say something.
"What?" she mouthed.
"I said," yelling louder than necessary above the music, "that I've just heard something I find hard to believe."
Blake's eyes shuttered wide. But it was just his father yelling, so he danced on, his face contorted.
"Turn down the music, Blake," Rayne called. "I think your father wants to speak." Blake shimmied to the stereo and turned it down.
"Your teacher called," Terry told Blake. "She said you withdrew from the spelling-bee finals. She'd counted on you going all the way to the state competition, maybe farther."
"Let someone else go," Blake said. He was practicing some palsy-stricken step, over and over and over.
"I don't understand this," Terry said. "This is a big opportunity. There's a scholarship at stake. Your teacher doesn't think anyone else at your school could even get past All-City."
"I'm not interested." Blake began pirouetting on the hardwood floor.
"That's not the point," Terry said. "A lot of people are counting on you."
"Let them count on somebody else." Blake pushed himself around and around like a lopsided top. Thumping to a dizzy stop, he began gyrating again.
Rayne, as usual, entered to run interference. "Why the sudden disinterest in the spelling-bee, honey? We thought you were looking forward to the spelling-bee."
"The spelling-bee's okay," Blake said.
"Then what's wrong with you ?" Terry said, though he regretted it the minute the words were on their way.
Rayne gave Terry her Neanderthal glare: chin down, lots of forehead. "Careful, Terry. This is Blake's spelling-bee, not yours." She turned back to Blake, who, hurt, had stopped dancing. He watched his parents, bewilderment burning like a colored flare on the white beach of his face. "If there's nothing wrong with the spelling-bee," Rayne asked, "why the change of plans?"
"Because it doesn't mean anything to me. Nothing like it means to Alex Crandle, anyway." In grade school Alex Crandle was Blake's best friend, and a smart boy, perhaps the second smartest child in the sixth grade. Unfortunately for Alex—and despite an admirable drive—he always seemed to come in second, panting and coughing, right behind Blake.
"You're going to give up the chance to go to Washington, D.C., to be on TV, to win a scholarship, just because it means a lot to Alex Crandle?"
"Well, yeah," Blake said. "Alex hasn't ever beaten me at anything."
Terry was speechless, completely disarmed. He turned to Rayne for help. Wide-eyed, she considered Blake, her hand over her mouth to hide a smile. A smile of more than tacit approval.
"Why not enter the spelling-bee and then just miss a word so Alex can win?" Rayne asked. Classic Rayne maneuver—avoid the issues, objectify. She was more interested in exploring Blake's behavior than in straightening it out.
"We were going to do that," Blake said. "But I always beat him. Everyone would know."
"We?" Rayne asked. "The two of you talked this over?"
"He asked you to do this?" Terry moaned.
"It was my idea." Blake could be tenacious, but only when the tenacity (given the object of his pursuit) was entirely absurd. "It's just a stupid spelling-bee! We already know I'd win, so why should I do it when Alex really wants to?"
"I'll give you a thousand reasons," Terry said. Opportunities were disintegrating like paper money on a fire.
"Terry," Rayne warned. "Think about Alex. They've already talked it over. Blake's already made his decision."
"Well, I haven't made mine," Terry declared. "What's he going to do, hand away his future piece by piece to every Alex Crandle who comes along? Doesn't Alex have any self-respect?"
"The boy's only in sixth grade," Rayne said.
Terry rolled his eyes.
"He still has to beat everybody else," Blake said.
"You're going to be in that spelling-bee." It was Terry's edict. Blake would have to obey.
Blake stared at Terry, an echoing of features. "You can't make me spell."
"What did you say?" Terry demanded, but he'd heard. And, of course, he knew Blake was right: he couldn't make his son spell. This twelve-year-old person who'd always been an appendix to Terry, contingent upon him for sustenance and existence and identity, could through no means be governed if he chose not to. Blake could have the last word, would have the last word. He could make any foolish choice he desired.
"You're overreacting," Rayne said.
Terry's face was red. Fingers firm, he kneaded his temples and felt the blood pulsing. He refused to believe he was overreacting, He was responding to an unacceptable possibility, a possibility he dutifully, until the day of Blake's death, attempted to disprove: that Blake's behavior, regardless of its reflection upon the boy's extra need for guidance, was beyond a father's control. The child's survival was at stake here! How could Terry not be terrified?—he was suddenly without the tool he needed to keep his child alive!
"I think you've done a very admirable thing," Rayne told Blake. "I hope Alex does well."
"Why do you do this to me?" Terry asked Rayne. Blake grinned, his face a flower of victory.
"Why do you side with him?" Terry posed these questions dejectedly, with the heavy glumness of exclusion and defeat. "Don't I have a say?"
"It's too late," Rayne said. "Blake's made his decision. He can't back out on Alex now."
She grabbed Blake's hand. He'd gravitated to her during the course of the debate, settled next to her between the couch and the coffee table. She pulled him close and kissed him on the side of the head. Blake never, even as a teenager, resisted a kiss from his mother. "Why don't you turn off the stereo and let your dad and me visit alone." Obediently, Blake turned off the stereo and raced up the stairs.
"Check on your sister," Terry called after him. "Clean your room."
"Relax, Terry," Rayne said.
"You're going to ruin the boy. He lacks drive as it is."
"He's twelve years old. He's a child." She dropped her pencil onto the coffee table. "He'll be fine."
"He's a mama's boy."
"The expert declares."
"I may've been a mama's boy, but I had drive. I was interested in surviving."
"Interested in surviving your father."
"This is typical," Terry grumbled. Rayne said nothing. "Sometimes I wonder if you're married to me or him. I wonder who you think's the child."
"Oh, Terry," she said, gathering her papers together, standing up, moving away from the table. "I don't think I'm up for pouting tonight. But if you'll wait until the kids are in bed, I'll show you who's the husband." She gently patted Terry s crotch in passing, on her way to the kitchen table to finish grading papers. Terry stood there feeling abandoned, patronized, half aroused. He wondered how the hell he was going to keep his son alive.
* * * * *
So it isn't so surprising to Terry that Blake died prematurely, in the throes of some fantasy, trying to avoid the real world. Blake had his mother, after all, to assure him he needed no reality.
Terry watches Rayne. It's the realities of the world for her now, Blake's box dangling not so many feet above the vault in which it will all be sealed for good. She isn't doing as well as before. She stands pressing Mindy against her, the palms of her hands over Mindy's flat chest, drawing, pulling, fusing the smaller shoulders into the larger ribcage, the young head into the young-middle-aged breasts. Rayne and Mindy are connected, and it takes all four of their legs to stand, and then only with the assistance of Alice on one side, Mother on the other. Rayne and Mindy stare ahead at the same undefined point. They could be an act, these two, with their uniform performance, their re-definition and repetition.
"Before offering the benediction upon the grave," the minister begins, "let us speak briefly of our Lord and Savior's sacrifice, of his mercy and grace which offers all reconciliation and peace. Let us take comfort in his resurrection and in the coming resurrection of Blake Walker and of all mankind …"
When Terry and Rayne first discovered they were going to have a child, a friend told them to choose their OB/GYN carefully because it was he or she who would escort their child into the world. The friend said, "You want to have a doctor you like, because every time you see that doctor you'll feel an obligation, a twinge of gratitude and debt and embarrassment. There's something fundamentally intimate, more intimate even than sex, about the delivery of a child. You want to suffer that moment with a person you like." At the time the advice seemed unorthodox. Terry would've chosen based upon capability, giving little thought to likability. He wouldn't have made the two equal because he didn't yet understand the chemistry. But their friend was right. The Walkers still send their OB/GYNs Christmas cards each year. They're bound to the doctors who escorted their children into the world. And by extension, Terry wonders if they'll be bound to this man who escorts their child out of the world. Terry can't imagine it. He doesn't feel anything for this minister, other than glad that he's not Mormon. Terry doesn't hear the man's words, only his voice. Terry won't feel gratitude and debt, though he'll feel embarrassment. They won't likely send this man a Christmas card.
Blake's final pigeon hole, the one in which he must stay forever, gapes seven feet by five feet and drops six feet. That's 210 cubic feet of displaced dirt, 362,880 cubic inches. A rhombus, a rectangle (every square a rectangle but not every rectangle a square), a cube, a container of geometric knowns. Terry's impressed with the precision of these graves. He wants to meet the men who dig them. The corners are sharp and the walls are straight, perpendicular to one another, as though cut with a giant cookie cutter forged especially for stamping graves. Terry wants to ask questions of the men who stamp out graves.
"Does every casket require the same sized vault, and does every vault require the same sized grave? Or is every casket different, every vault and thus every grave? It would seem," he would continue objectively, as Rayne might do, "that each casket—so much a statement of the inhabitant thereof—would be different, individual in size, fabric, and labor to represent the life but mostly the death of the owner. An horrendous task, digging so many custom graves for so many custom vaults for so many custom caskets, but appropriate, nonetheless, if one takes the time to consider the custom lives." But, realistically, he'd come back to the issue at hand—he's speaking, after all, of a pigeon hole, a compartment of classification, a classification by similarity. "Do categorically similar people end up in categorically similar graves?" he'd ask. "For someone in the know, is it only necessary to read the obituary or the police report (depending upon which, if either, is correct) to know the exact size of the grave, perhaps the exact coffin? Take, for example, my father and my son: Both died at the tip end of ejaculation, their lives spit from them like their seeds. Seeds which outlived them by hours, most likely. They ended it in the same coffin, in a vault in a hole of identical size. Doesn't it seem possible," Terry would implore his grave diggers, "that I speak a fundamental truth? That the ways of our lives and deaths predestine us to the kinds and sizes and appearances we'll last be remembered by?"
And the grave diggers would say, "It's all standardized, buddy: adults, children, infants. Big, medium, small. It's right here." They'd poke at their charts. "We dig the hole, we lower the stiff, we throw in the dirt. A couple of months the dirt settles, gets hard and chummy with the world, and you can't even find the edge of the hole. Three sizes, one of 'em fits 'most everybody. When it's under the ground, nobody remembers the difference, anyway."
"But I do," Terry would say. "I never forget a numerical value." The grave diggers wouldn't understand, so Terry would try, "There seems no justice in the standardized approach." The grave diggers wouldn't get that either, so Terry would nod his head and say, "Well, you dig very nice pigeon holes nonetheless, very sharp and very straight." And though the conversation would be over, Terry would appreciate these men, if for nothing else, for the precision with which they perform their standardized task.
"Amen," says the wall of people surrounding Blake's grave.

It comes as quite a surprise, then, to discover what a sad, screwed up, immature - and even bitchy - heroine she's chosen for her first novel,The Key. Narrated in the first person, it explores the damaged psyche of Jan Hickman, a middle-aged, middle-class divorcee whose children have recently left home. Jan runs a bookshop in a small provincial town, and her humdrum life is punctuated by nothing more exciting than going to aerobics classes and giggling over the personal ads in the local paper. Flashbacks reveal that in her twenties she had an adulterous affair with her psychology tutor on an adult education programme. The man turned out to be a disaster - patronising, inadequate, an emotional sadist addicted to humiliating women.
Fifteen years on, Jan is still damaged and embittered by the experience. She decides to turn the tables on the male sex by transforming herself into a heartless seductress. She selects a victim as vulnerable as she herself was all those years ago - a nerdy, thirtyish architect who's recently lost his job and lives with his parents - and calculatedly sets about making him fall in love with her.
This brief summary makes the narrative seem more focused and dramatic than it really is. In fact, Jan's developing relationship with the young man is interwoven with a series of additional strands which makes the novel feel rather diffuse despite its brevity: memories of the old affair, thoughts about her two daughters, scenes in the bookshop, conversations with her friend Deborah, descriptions of her cottage, French madrigals, and moments of horrifying loneliness.
This is a book in which character and language are far more important than plot. The storyline could have been tighter and better directed, but Jan's personality is just about complex enough to maintain the narrative momentum on its own. She has too much psychological depth to be labelled merely a villain or a victim. We are never asked to pass moral judgement upon her, but nor do we ever fell comfortable enough with her to identify wholly with her viewpoint. If not quite an "unreliable narrator", she is certainly a tricky one: she doesn't lie to us, but then she doesn't tell us everything she needs to know.
The result is an intriguing but uncomfortable read - beautifully written, and full of the kind of detailed observations you'd expect from Wicks - but somehow difficult to get to grips with.

Research & Development: Antelope Audio Zen Studio — Portable Audio Interface
Zen – it's a school of Mahayana Buddhism; a meditative state; an audio interface.
If that last category seems out of place, you may not know the thinking that went into making Zen Studio, the portable audio interface from Antelope Audio. But this unit was designed to satisfy and soothe every stress test that comes with recording – in the studio or on the move.
Upon its introduction at MusikMesse, Zen was a surprise coming from a company that built its reputation on master clocks like the prized Isochrone 10M AKA The Atomic Clock, converters like the Eclipse 384 Stereo AD/DA, and Orion32 multi-channel AD/DA converter and USB interface .
With Zen Studio, Antelope has debuted something different: the first professional portable solution that provides 12 mic pres, 20 analog ins and 14 outs, DSP effects. 24 channel low-latency PC and Mac connectivity is also part of this powerful package. In all, 38 simultaneous inputs and 32 total outputs are available, along with the same clocking and conversion from the 32-channel Orion interface.
For artists, engineers, and music producers, the interface remains one of the primary considerations for creating a recording setup. What's the thinking that goes into a next-generation entry for this crowded sector? In our latest "Research & Development," Antelope Audio CEO & Founder Igor Levin reflects on the Zen of Audio Interface Design.
Until now, Antelope Audio has primarily been known in the Pro Audio market for its high-end converters and master clocks. What made this the right time for Antelope to branch out into a portable audio interface?
First, I would like to make it clear that we do not completely differentiate our high-end converters from the portable audio interfaces we design, since both products share the same core technologies and high-quality components. ZEN Studio perfectly illustrates that high-end sound and extreme portability are not contradictory.
The question has been asked "why now?": With our last product, Orion32, we proved that we can fit 32 channels of great sounding AD/DA and an Antelope master clock in a 1U chassis. We knew we could do the same with 12 mic pres, and put it in an even smaller box.
From there, what was the hole in the audio interface market that you felt you could address with a new offering?
We noticed that there are a large number of portable USB audio interfaces on the market, but they either offer a low-channel count or a pretty fair sound quality. Most of them might be OK for some basic home recording purposes, but not offering much of the flexibility and functionality one needs when going deeper into creating music.
Zen Studio fits in the market where people are looking for a portable multi-channel recording solution with proven studio quality clocking, conversion and processing.
I know that portability was a high priority for you in designing Zen studio. Have you seen additional demand from engineers and artists for a portable interface?
Today, producers and artists are constantly traveling and often working on the go. They need an interface that allows them to be creative not only in the studio, but also in a hotel room.
At the same time, others need to maintain sound quality while moving from one location to another. An indie band may want to record with the same high quality that an expensive studio may offer, or have access to a high quality monitoring and recording system for their live gig. Younger audio professionals may require an easy to use device so they can learn the basics of recording and mixing. Independent filmmakers, meanwhile, are looking for high quality in an easy to carry recording device.
Zen Studio fits all these needs and situations. It offers almost unlimited options and possible applications and is designed to be the ultimate solution for a garage band, an established producer or an experienced field-recording engineer.
Zen Studio gets a great deal of connectivity into its form factor. How did you decide what was the ideal amount of inputs, outputs, and mic pres for the unit?
It is hard to tell what the ideal amount of connectivity is, and I'm sure we will get plenty of comments and interest in the choices we made. But we did our best to suit the needs of the market we are trying to attract.
We carefully researched what is already out there, talked to many end users and analyzed what would make the best fit for our product line. This is how we came up with our choice of including 12 class A mic pres with phantom power, eight line inputs, and four Hi-Z inputs. On top of that, we added eight more line inputs on D-sub 25, creating a portable device that has no less than 20 real analog inputs.
Which existing pieces of Antelope technology were you able to most benefit from and incorporate directly into Zen Studio?
The core of Zen Studio, as with all Antelope Audio products, is our proprietary clocking technology. It is run by the 4th generation of our 64-bit Acoustically Focused Clocking jitter management algorithm and oven-controlled crystal oscillator: exactly the same technology that sits in our flagship master clock Trinity.
Other proven technologies are borrowed from our 32-channel interface Orion32. Zen Studio takes advantage of the Orion's conversion technology and extremely low latency — yet very stable — custom USB interface.
We didn't compromise on the headphone amps — these come from our mastering converter Eclipse 384.
On the flipside of the coin, what are some examples of new technologies that you had to design from the ground up for this solution?
Zen Studio is a portable recording solution designed to provide commercial studio-grade functionality. This the reason we took the flexible signal routing concept from Orion32 and further developed it to meet the more complex needs of Zen Studio.
In addition, we implemented four independent mixers with built-in DSP effects. Perhaps it is not quite fair to say that the mic pres and the DSP effects are designed from scratch, since one of the earliest devices I designed 15 years ago was the Aardvark Direct Pro 24/96 and Q10, which had mic pres and a DSP engine with EQ, Compressor and Reverb. This was well accepted in the market back then, and in fact is still in use within some studios.

From the author of the New York Times bestseller Garden Spells comes a beautiful, haunting story of old loves and new, and the power of the connections that bind us forever…
The first time Eby Pim saw Lost Lake, it was on a picture postcard. Just an old photo and a few words on a small square of heavy stock, but when she saw it, she knew she was seeing her future.
That was half a lifetime ago. Now Lost Lake is about to slip into Eby's past. Her husband, George, is long passed. Most of her demanding extended family are gone. All that's left is a once-charming collection of lakeside cabins succumbing to the southern Georgia heat and damp, and an assortment of faithful misfits drawn back to Lost Lake year after year by their own unspoken dreams and desires.
It's a lot, but it's not enough to keep Eby from calling this her final summer at the lake, and relinquishing Lost Lake to a developer with cash in hand. Until one last chance at family knocks on her door.
Lost Lake is where Kate Pheris spent her last best summer at the age of twelve, before she learned of loneliness and heartbreak and loss. Now she's all too familiar with those things, but she knows about hope, too, thanks to her resilient daughter, Devin, and her own willingness to start moving forward. Perhaps at Lost Lake her little girl can cling to her own childhood for just a little longer...and maybe Kate herself can rediscover something that slipped through her fingers so long ago.
One after another, people find their way to Lost Lake, looking for something that they weren't sure they needed in the first place: love, closure, a second chance, peace, a mystery solved, a heart mended. Can they find what they need before it's too late?
At once atmospheric and enchanting, Lost Lake shows Sarah Addison Allen at her finest, illuminating the secret longings and the everyday magic that wait to be discovered in the unlikeliest of places.
"Metzger's Southern accents and variety of boisterous and genteel voices capture the eclectic personalities of townsfolk, while her alluring voice and smooth reading convey the tranquility of the lake community.... Listeners will be charmed." (AudioFile)

The Ruins of Ral-parthea
This is my very first writing exercise that I am doing as part of a class project. It will start out as a brainstorm, and we'll see where we end up!
As Robert sat in class, he listened to the instructor drone on and on. He leaned back in his chair with his feet thrust out in front of him and his mind started to wander....back to last Friday night. Something very strange had happened that night and he still didn't know what to make of it. As the teacher's voice buzzed in the background, Robert began to consider the note that had been slipped under the door to his room
The fire grows hot, the time grows late and there is no recourse to be found in the land."
"What could it mean?" he mused to himself. "Who put it under my door? I would have heard someone in the hallway..." his thoughts continue to revolve around the mysterious note. He suddenly noticed that the teacher's voice had stopped. He looked up directly into the spectacled face of Mrs. Greevy. "Is there a problem young man?" she inquired in a sharp, nasal voice. Mrs. Greevy tapped the desk in front of him "How would you answer question #4?" she asked using that nasal voice of hers. Robert fumbled quickly for an answer "ummm...." he replied as the words on the page swam in front of him. "That's what I thought" stated Mrs. Greevy as she stood upright and began to walk away from his desk.

She is fine in November and I sowed her in September
Looked at her tip, saw that she was ready then
Well I wanted to believe she was
Easy beby!
Won't you tell me you wanted I never wanted cuz
I never ever sowed it like this before
But she wants to believe me now
Smoke baby, come and tell me what you want
Love me cuz I ain't got nothing else to do
C'mon and smoke my funky... a a a
The smoke moves like you never ever thought it would
C'mon, don't shoot that fix
This is good, this is high
It's just like paradise
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
Some nights I want to have you closer
Tell me what you want I might need it
But I don't need any love, the only thing I need is
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
You want to feel
You want to fly to heaven?
C'mon and feel my love, feel the heaven that I heading for
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
Smoke 'em if you got 'em

Wentzville Prop 3
Posted in the Lake St. Louis Forum
1 - 10 of 10 Comments Last updated Apr 12, 2011
#1 Oct 11, 2010
What is everyone's thought on Prop 3?
#2 Oct 11, 2010
Prop 3 is just an excuse to give the district more money to waste, and not an incentive to become more financially responsible. Look into the expenses and hiring of the district.
Too many people in the offices, too much spent for facilites that are redundant or unneeded, and too little spent for teachers and books. Many kids do not have books this year to take home to study with. They have to leave them at school.
The school board and the administration have wasted YOUR money and preformed a charade with the public.
Get rid of th board, and get rid of the administration.
#3 Dec 5, 2010
You should be ashamed of yourself. Why don't you try to run an entire school district, being responsible for the educational outcome and daily upbringing, no less, of thousands of children with not enough space or necessities to adequately do so?!?! Our school district is doing the best they can, with the little that they have. Let me guess... You feel the way you stated, yet you still have your children attending schools there??? You are a selfish person who clearly hasn't done the proper research to back up your hideous statements, who is using the school system yet refusing to contribute.
O Fallon, MO
#4 Dec 5, 2010
Amanda, what are you talking about? You seem passionate about the issue, but why?
I assume you think it is the school districts place to handle the 'upbringing' of my children.
Sorry, but that is my place, not the districts, or the government.
You call it 'our district'. What exactly is your tie to the district? A teacher, administrator- but which of the too-many- to -count ones, or just some parent with an opinion?
As for the hideous statements, which were those? And what research was needed or missed? Sorry, but your comment seems a bit vague
#5 Mar 30, 2011
I've read all of the literature regarding this proposition and I've yet to see how this tax increase will affect the area businesses? The burden seems to fall solely on the homeowner.
If I'm overlooking the information, someone please correct me.
#6 Apr 5, 2011
I am a sixth grade student at a middle school in the district, and I can't believe that you would say that! If this proposition is not passed, then there will br seventy kids in my high-school class, per class. My mom works at an elementary school, and she leads the autism department, and if this prop doesn't pass, she will have to look after 22 kids who can't figure out how to even write their name. She would gladly swich jobs with you, and then you can see how much of a moron you are!
O Fallon, MO
#7 Apr 5, 2011
Cameron, I appreciate your comments, however, you are in sixth grade. You haven't the slightest clue what you are talking about. How will your high school classes have 70 students per class? Where do you get this information?
As for your mother, she chose her profession, she can unchoose it as well if she doesn't like the working conditions.
Simple fact, this district wastes money and deceives the public on nearly every issue they bring before the public. They do things that are suspect and possibly in violation of the laws of Missouri.
The board is a waste of energy. It seems only those privileged enough to fall into the good graces of the board are selected to lead the community-run projects. Did you attend the GPS meetings? They were a sham from the beginning, designed to only solicit the answers the district wanted.
The board acts irresponibly with the taxpayers money and fold to special interests instead of taking care of the EDUCATION of the students.
The winners from the elections today will do nothing but be 'yes-men' for Adams, and the tax increase will DEVALUE property when people can't pay the new taxes that will cause some to fall behind in mortgages. The dollars they get from this tax increase will be further wastes and allow for waste of dollars that could have been spent to pay some of these bills.
If the district have leveraged itself to the max on bonds, and still needs many millions more- isn't it a good chance that some money should be saved by cutting back? This district has not cut back, only pushed ahead to stay even with the 'Jones'.
#8 Apr 6, 2011
I'm sure that the district, like any government agency, and probably like most businesses, has waste that could be eliminated. If people feel that is the case, and that the board is not working to eliminate that waste, then they should run for the board, or at the very least work hard to get people elected that will fix the problems. Just showing up to vote isn't enough, any more that posting on this site. That won't make any difference.
Regardless, of all of the areas where I would be willing to pay a little more in taxes, the first would be for local schools. The success of the district has a huge impact on many things, including the crime rate, unemployment, development, and yes - property values, to name but a few. For those who have no interest in seeing their kids go to college, or those with no kids, the quality of the local schools may not be important. But anyone who has worked in real estate will tell you that people want to buy or build in areas with good schools. Poor schools simply drive down the value of homes.

Are you in the Wentzville District, do you work for the district, did you get papers and packets of information passed out to you? I may be a sixth grader, but I am apparently smarter than you because you don't think prop 3 is good. Once you are a teacher and have to deal with 20 autistic students a day, then I will take your part into more conciteration.

Contact me back once your child comes home from school, and asks for prop 3 to be passed.(That is, if you do have children in the District.)

High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is highly induced during liver injury; however, a link between this alarmin and ALD has not been established.

Kisspeptin is essential for activation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis. In this study, we established gonadotropin-releasing hormone/enhanced green fluorescent protein transgenic rats. Rats were injected with 1, 10, or 100 pM kisspeptin-10, a peptide derived from full-length kisspeptin, into the arcuate nucleus and medial preoptic area, and with… (More)
