Oppressive heat, turnover in their roster, a cornucopia of injuries; what haven't the Red Bulls fought through during this three game homestand?
Though New York clearly held the better of possession against Chicago, they struggled to find their rhythm with the conditions being what they were. The heat slowed both teams to a crawl. The trade of Dane Richards has and will continue to force New York to reestablish their midfield identity. Newcomers Sebastian Le Toux and Bill Gaudette played in only their second match with the club, trying to carve out their role with the team.
Save for a moment of individual brilliance off the foot of Thierry Henry, the outcome could have been very different.
"Of course, difficult conditions," Red Bulls coach Hans Backe admitted. "Overall after 90 minutes, I feel it was well deserved to win the game, but of course it could have went either way. The first time in a while we got a clean sheet and that is what we wanted from today's game. And (we) scored the first goal. So perhaps you can say the players were a little bit scared of the heat. We could have gone forward from central midfield in the second half much quicker but the players chose to have a lot of possession. But I can understand it with this heat."
Though New York has achieved success through it all, the worst isn't over. With most of the team's starters going over 80 minutes twice over the course of four days, availability for Saturday's matinee against the Philadelphia Union becomes a big question mark.
Wilman Conde re-aggravated his groin during the match and was subbed late in the game. Though he told reporters after the match that he felt fit enough to compete this Saturday, his recent battles with groin and other leg strains may indicate he is worse for wear than what he revealed. More will be known of his status in the days leading up to Saturday.
Meanwhile, Teemu Tainio is back in training, but nowhere near playing conditions. Rafa Marquez continues to be questionable after playing all of 20 minutes against the Sounders on Sunday, and fellow Designated Player Thierry Henry has worked through a 171 of a possible 180 minutes in grueling conditions.
Bottom line; though New York has managed to go 1-0-1 during this homestand, it is taking it's toll on the team.
"At the end, I felt a bit stiff," Henry explained. "I said to myself, we have another game. I didn't play a lot recently in that heat, so maybe the last 5 minutes I didn't want to pick up another injury and add another set back. It's pretty important to stay fit.
"It's a tricky one. The boss asked me if I wanted to play today and I said ya, I need to play regardless of the heat. I am in a situation now where I need minutes," he continued. "To get better, you need minutes but you don't want to burn yourself out there.
"Especially three games in a row. One is enough already. The game on Sunday, today, and the game on Saturday – we are going to have to stay inside, AC, drink a lot of water and perform against Philly, which is not an easy game."
"We said before the game; there's no idea just to talk about the heat or the way we're playing," Backe said. "It has to be smart decision-making and when you have the possession or when to move forward because if you lose the ball too quick, you will drop dead in 60 minutes in this heat."
What's the point of this article exactly?
To my liking and to the rest of the team as well it will be a pleasant 83* day on Sat against Filthy..COYRB!!
Brain Guy
I kind of agree. Conde says he's fine. Henry says he's fine. The Marquez and Tainio injuries are old news. There's not much here about the "toll" the heat is taking on the team.
I'm pretty sure the stands in Houston were about 100 degrees last night with 100% humidity…I can only guess the players were miserable.
Cali boy
Wah…wah NYRBs can't handle a little heat. Just more excuses laid out by this east coast based blog. These guys get paid thousands of dollars and can't suck it up for 90 minutes of their day. SMH
That it's hot. Hadn't noticed.
Who pissed in your Cheerios?
I think every team is facing hot weather conditions… it's called SUMMER. At least everyone in the mid-Atlantic and South always play in the heat. DC, Philly, Houston, etc.
Please someone call a whhhhaaambulance for the Red Bulls!!!!!
As a NY fan, I have to agree that the team needs to stop whining about the weather and find ways to win. In this heat, it's important the coaches do more tactically to win games and not exhaust/injure their players. But frankly, I'm not sympathetic that these guys have a "hard" job to do when A LOT of people have a hard job to do. This game is all about results, and if they fail to win, as a fan I will not accept an "it was the weather" excuse. Can't control the weather, still need to perform and win.
Time for Backe to make better use of his bench or — in this heat — he will figuratively and literally burn out his starters.

I was born and lived for 12 years of my life in Fullerton Road, I lived with my parents sister and brother in my nan's house number 19. My uncle and aunt lived at the bottom of the cul-de-sac, I had an aunt in Stretton Road opposite St Martin's Church, which I believe has been demolished!! We, as children had great fun in the cul-de-sac, everyone new everyone, we had street parties and fancy dress competitions. I can't remember the name of the shops at the top of the road but we had an off licence on the corner, sweet shop, bakers, and a social club my mum and dad used to go to. My mum was a great ballroom dancer, I think the club was called The Fana Club, does anyone remember that? I attended Davidson Road Infants, I remember passing allotments and a very nasty smell of the Laundry on my way to school. On the road along side the laundry, I had a friend Linda, my mum became her god mother but I have long since lost touch with the the Tyrie family. Linda's dad was Bill. I then moved to Shirley.

Love pine nuts, and these were very good. Clean, smooth and buttery tasting. I will definitely be purchasing them again.

Great product!

These are a great quality product. A bit pricey - but You get what you pay for . Love that they're organic. Great to throw in salads.
- Sara
Great tasting nuts
Pine nuts are one of those nuts that you don't generally eat by themselves, although these ones are good enough that you could probably just fill up a bowl and go to town. I toast them for a cookie recipe that I like, and they always bake great and add a nice flavor. I'm not a salad eater, so not sure about that, but they probably crunch well and add zest to salads. I mix them into my chicken salad, and it works great to just give it an extra bit of zing
- James.Ferrell
Great addition to salads
I love pine nuts, even going so far as to eat them straight out of the bag. These are certified organic pine nuts, so there's nothing but raw pine nuts in here and you taste the difference. They are great on salads, and I even mix them into my smoothies just to get more protein in there. Woodstock makes other nuts, and these and the cashews are my favorites, but I'm about to order the almonds so we'll see which one ends up on top.

By now, you've probably memorized most of the Corvette story. From Zora Arkus-Duntov to the Mako Shark to the bankruptcy years, each of the car's seven generations has its own key moments and cast of colorful characters. At this point, the third generation Corvette accounts for the middle section of the brand's story and, looking back, it's a remarkably appropriate car to hold that place. With visible nods to both Chevrolet's heritage and future, examples like this Bloomington Gold certified roadster are finding firm footing in a collector market that will inevitably grow stronger. The subject of complete restoration, this numbers-matching Sting Ray features options like a tri-power 427, a rugged 4-speed transmission and 4-wheel disc brakes that make it both fun to drive and surprisingly capable. There's never a bad time to buy a good Corvette, so if you're looking to add a first class C3 to your collection, you've come to the right place!
Assembled at GM's storied St. Louis manufacturing facility on March 18th, 1968, and Bloomington Gold certified on June 29th, 2013, this awesome drop-top is bathed in correct code 978 International Blue two-stage. Under that striking paint, the car's solid fiberglass body presents well and has a solid feel that conveys a mostly rust and drama-free existence. That body's panel gaps have been narrowed to better-than-factory standards, creating a smooth finish that, devoid of noteworthy issues, provides a testament to its high quality restoration. And overall, this vintage cruiser is a clean, well-maintained classic that provides a combination of style and reliability not normally found in moody trailer queens or butch barn builds.
With such a cleanly styled body, ornamentation could have ruined the C3's presence. Thankfully, Chevrolet did a great job of placing form over function and keeping brightwork to a minimum. At the front of the car, chrome-trimmed 'egg crate' grilles center small parking lamps between a thin chrome bumper and a subtle chin spoiler. Above that bumper, a cross-flag-branded header draws the eye to a chrome-trimmed hood that anchors bold "427" emblems in front of a vacuum operated cowl. That hood reflects raked glass that's framed in showroom-quality stainless and capped by a bright white top. At the sides of that glass, 68-exclusive door poppers perfectly complement slick rocker trim and a correct chrome mirror. And at the back of the car, a "CORVETTE" branded valence hangs signature tail lamps and two chrome bumpers between a familiar cross-flag fuel filler and spotless stainless exhaust tips.
Beneath the bright blue hood you'll find the car's original "3916321" branded L68 (IM) which was cast on January (A) 10th, (10) 1968 (8), assembled in Tonawanda, New York (T) on March (03) 11th, (11) 1968 and stamped with a correct 414054 partial VIN. Straight from the factory, this beefy big block utilizes Chevy's storied Tri-power technology to twist stout 10.25 to 1 compression into an even 400 horsepower! At the peak of the road-ready mill, a polished and decaled air cleaner swirls wind into a Winter aluminum intake via three Holley carburetors. At the sides of that intake, cast iron heads prop stamped and polished valve covers above fully restored exhaust manifolds. And at the back of those heads, a chrome-capped ignition system sequences spark through stainless sleeved plug wires. When fired, the infamous 427 rumbles like an old school stoplight slayer. Its ancillary components are top-notch in every way, with new GM hoses and a rebuilt master cylinder accompanying bright tower clamps and era-correct smog equipment. And an evenly sprayed combination of Chevy Orange engine skin and Satin Black fender framing is interrupted by nothing but clean decals and fresh stainless fluid lines.
Peer under this low-slung roadster and you'll find a Satin Black chassis that's straight, solid and ready to pound the pavement. The hot 427 sends power to an original Muncie 4-speed, which hangs a Muncie (P) assembled on March © 7th, (07) 1968 (8) build stamp between a correct 3925660 casting number and matching 414054 partial VIN. In front of that transmission, a rebuilt double A-arm suspension is complete with an authentic manual steering rack. Opposite that steering rack, a rebuilt transverse leaf suspension does an excellent job increasing grip. In the middle of the car, an aluminized, true-dual exhaust system pipes spent gases through new, rear-mounted mufflers. At the corners of the car, 4-wheel disc brakes ensure rapid stops and great handling. And all that fully sorted hardware rolls on handsome rally wheels, which spin fresh F70-15 Goodyear Wide Tread whitewalls around dent-free trim rings and turbine center caps.
Slip into this Sting Ray's correct code 414 Bright Blue interior and settle on one of its pristine vinyl buckets. Those seats are as original, with correct stainless hardware framing their bases. The carpet below them was replaced, even in the cargo area, where you'll find a surprising amount of storage space. The door panels at the edges of that carpet are, like the rest of the car's side panels, virtually new in every way. There's a fresh center console that accommodates a small shifter, cool wheel-style heater controls and a correct Delco AM/FM radio. From the driver's seat, a 3-spoke steering wheel laps a set of factory gauges that keeps tabs on speed, revs, oil, amps, temp, fuel and time. And all that hardware unites to create a simple, comfortable cockpit that's befitting of a performance oriented brand like Corvette.

NGP Design Concern
The NGP's analog sticks are gonna wear away in no time. they stick up way too much. Both of them should be flat just like on psps. And, it has no protection for it's buttons or it's screen. It only has 2 shoulder buttons. So it is gonna be difficult to play classic ps or ps2 titles because of this. A sleek ridge should be added to the top back so that another set of shoulder buttons could be added. The NGP 3D capability will be a bit better than nintendo's though in my opinion. Because it uses other things to produce the effect and it will be 3D no matter what angle you view it in (as i've read). There needs to be some way to protection the screen and im thinking, maybe a flexible rubber cover can be made onto it so that it folds over the screen and sticks to it without adhesive when not in use. Then when in use, you could fold it back and it'll stick to the back of the ngp. But it has to be thick enough for protection, but thin enough so that the touching sensors on the back will still function efficiently. Anyone else feel like something should be done on this subject?
Re: NGP Design Concern
The current PSPs have no protection for the screen or buttons, that is why there are cases available and I am sure they will help with protecting the sticks too. The idea of the rubber falp that would stick to the back would get in the way of the touch panel.
It doesn't need other shoulder buttons there are many more ways of controlling it, L2 and R2 could be assigned to the back touch panel for example.
I have not heard of any 3D capabity for the NGP can you post some links?
I do not think they need to change anything, except provide a wrist strap because I would be worried about dropping it if both my thumbs are on sticks and some finger working the touch panel at the back, I don't think you could have a strong enough grip.

Our Upper School campus was the host site for a student-led discussion about anxiety last Friday afternoon. The idea was developed by three of our senior GYLI (Global Youth Leadership Institute) students and brought to life by Ms. Nieves-Caraballo. More than 40 students and faculty members participated in this meaningful event. Here are some of the highlights:

Version 1.0 - March 2009
Version 2.0 - March 2010
Browser (Client) >> Sends Request to >> Executable Program (On Server) >> Sends HTML Output back to Browser
Introduced "templating" in web pages
HTML & dynamic script lived side by side leading to spaghetti code
Separated web page into aspx (HTML & dynamic server controls in XML format) and Code Behind (aspx.cs)
Overcomplicated ASP.NET Page Life Cycle, determining the right location in the life cycle for code was not intutive
Unit testing impossible or too difficult as everything was tightly coupled with the UI (System.Web)
View State did not scale well for large applications
Huge collection of ready to use controls
Automatic State Management
Implements the Model View Controller web presentation pattern
Clear separation of concerns, Data Model, Application Logic, Data Presentation
Postback cycle & Viewstate no longer necessary
Model, Contains the logic for the application data, In most cases writes model state to and from the database
View, Displays application's UI, UI is normally created from model data, Does not handle user inputs
Controller, Handle user interaction, Work with the Model to perform data manipulation, Selects a view and passes it the model data to be rendered
Each component has a single responsibility
SRP: Single Responsibility Principle
DRY: Don't Repeat Yourself
Allows you to concentrate on a single aspect (e.g. UI) of the application without having to worry about the other
Easily testible due to loose coupling between elements
Elements can be tested in isolation from framework and other components
If route is found >> ASP.NET MVC
If no route is found >> Webforms
All core contracts are interface based allowing them to be easily mocked
Loose coupling of elements allows for quick and easy unit testing
Any Unit Testing framework that is compatible with .NET can be used
Interface based architecture
Very few sealed classes or methods
Easily replace components of the system with custom solutions
e.g. you can plug in your own view engine (instead of the winform template view engine)
User and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) friendly URLs
URLs do not need file extensions anymore
REST (Representational State Transfer) addressing
You want built in state management & postback mechanism
You need out of the box functionality. There is a huge pool of Server Controls for ASP.NET
You need rapid application development for small projects
Less code is needed in ASP.NET (than MVC) for smaller applications
ASP.NET uses Page Controller pattern (functionality in individual pages)
You need complete control over application behavior (no default view state or post back)
You want to handle complexity by breaking the system into M-V-C
You need TDD (test driven development)
MVC uses Front Controller (single controller) pattern (supports rich routing infrastructure)

College prep "haul" number 2!
Today's purchases were made at none other than my trusty old local Wal-Mart.
In total, I bought 7 items for school:
- 1.5 inch black binder (one-touch, clear cover, 4 pockets, heavy duty from Avery)
- 3 assorted colors of 1 subject notebooks (college ruled, 100 sheets, 11×9 from the Walmart brand)
- Double pack of correction tape (Bic's "Wite-Out", roughly 39 feet of tape in each)
*for the 20 pens I bought yesterday…*
- Double pack of my favorite pencils (Paper Mate, .5mm lead, black and forest green, comes with lead refill and 2 extra erasers)
- A double pack of USB drive (8 gigs, red and blue, "Cruzer Pop" from SanDisk)
The total price for all of this (minus the USB drives) multiplied by two including my brother's almost identical purchases amounted to about $45.00 USD.
A few words about the products I bought!
The pencils from Paper Mate are my absolute favorite store-bought pencils and I have been using them for as long as I can remember! I used to only buy .7mm lead pencils back in middle school, but ever since my brother lent me his .5mm one, I was hooked! They have helped me write smoother, and the clicking mechanism is right next to your thumb so you can write non-stop. The eraser is also very useful and effective, lasts f.o.r.e.v.e.r. The grip is comfortable, and, needless to say more, it is my personal school must-have! (It has gotten me safely through countless 40-essays for AP English and many other exams!!!)
My two cents for the day:
I highly recommend you start purchasing your school supplies and think about the bare necessities. Always remember, you are going to school and spending the big bucks to study and better yourself, so try not to be distracted by sparkly pencils or notebooks that sport style over functionality!

Chapter 45 (Vinnia)Mature
Late, as always.
Slipping inconspicuously into the back row of benches that were arranged in the Songmakers' main room, Vinnia leaned back and let her body language show how disinterested she was in the meeting.
Every morning, while the trainees were eating breakfast, the Songmakers Force briefly to discuss topics of importance. Today, like every other day, Vinnia was ready to die of boredom. When will I finally get out of here?
"Don't you think, Vinnia?"
Aretta's voice broke through the silence and caught Vinnia by surprise. Raising her eyebrows, Vinnia crossed her arms. "Eh? What was that?"
Aretta rolled her eyes. "This is a prime example of what I've been talking about," she droned on in that obnoxious voice of hers. "We all must be on our guard constantly, ready to combat any signs of rebellion. Don't you agree?"
Standing and placing her hands on her hips, Vinnia opened her mouth to respond. Honestly, she had no idea what she was about to say, but something had to be said in order to embarrass Aretta. Anyways, Vinnia was known for being able to think on the fly. "I suppose we ought to squelch rebellion just like how you squelched the rebellion in Quinn, Aretta? With catty eyelashes and red lips?"
Vinnia's words caused the room to buzz with surprise. No, Vinnia had never been one for beating around the bush.
Crossing her arms, Aretta raised her eyebrows and laughed, as though Vinnia's comment amused her. However, Vinnia knew Aretta better than to be fooled by the fool's indifferent behavior. Behind the aforementioned eyelashes, Aretta's eyes flashed with silent anger. Vinnia did not feel threatened in the least. In fact, she only felt invigorated.
"Oh, pray tell, Aretta. How do you plan to squelch rebellion which does not even exist? Honestly, have you seen anyone who looks even remotely seditious? Everyone here would follow you to the death."
Standing a little more stiffly, Aretta delivered her blow. "Have you not forgotten that your own rebellion put you in disgrace, friend?"
"Disgrace, my foot. I didn't want to win, anyways."
Stop stirring rebellion, Vinnia. Sit down and don't cause any more problems.
"Vinnia Valdeza, there are many personal blows I could deliver to you. For example, the way you always wear long sleeves, or how your husband saw fit to abhor you, or how you - you, the most promising of all your cronies! - no longer sing for anyone."
"The most promising of all my cronies? It's quite interesting you'd say that, Aretta, seeing as you'd have counted yourself as one of them a few years ago."
"Enough!" Master Argos, the "ringmaster" of the Force, cut in. "Aretta, do not let one heckler distract you from your speech. Vinnia, have you no discretion?"
Insulted but trying not to show it, Vinnia shrugged as though Master Argos' words hadn't bothered her at all and sat.
From across the room, Aretta cast Vinnia a satisfied smile.

In a wok or large pot, heat oil until a deep-frying thermometer registers 370 degrees F. In a medium bowl set over an ice bath, stir yolk with chopsticks or a whisk; add ice water, stirring to combine. Sift flour and cornstarch into egg mixture, stirring to incorporate. Don't worry about a few remaining lumps in the batter.
Coat onion rings with batter, letting excess drip back into bowl. Fry onion rings in the hot oil in small batches, turning once, until just beginning to color. Drain on paper towel. Repeat process, skimming oil of tempura batter bits as necessary until all onion rings have been fried. If oil becomes dark, begin again with fresh oil. Serve immediately.

New Honda NC750 range debuts at Eicma
Whole range updated for 2016
The NC750X
The 2016 NC750S
HERE'S Honda's updated NC750 range, which was shown at a press conference in Milan last night.
We knew they were coming because Honda had already released teaser images and details of the Naked NC750S and Integra maxi-cooter, while the NC750X was shown at the Tokyo motor show last month - but this is their European debut.
All three have received updates to their automatic Dual Clutch Transmission Systems (which is standard on the Integra and an option on the other two). There are now three levels of sporty 'S' mode to choose from, to suit different riding styles and scenarios.
Updates to the NC750S include a shorter, pentagon-shaped exhaust, which Honda says gives the bike a deeper engine note.
Other changes include two new special-edition two-tone colour options.
The adventure style NC750X has a new, more rugged look. Other updates include LED lights front and rear, a taller screen, a new Showa 'dual-bending valve' fork, and increased helmet storage space. The Integra maxi-scooter, based on the same frame and 745cc parallel-twin engine as the others, gets a new Showa fork with 'dual bending valves'.
It's got LED front and rear lighting and new 'LCD instruments with personalised colour options' according to Honda.
All three have also been made compliant with Euro4 emission limits.
They were unveiled at a press conference last night ahead of this week's Eicma show, along with a new CB500 range.

Implemented and ExecutedMature
A unfortunate draftee of a seemingly never ending war in the far future. His skills are nothing specail he just an average guy. Or so he thinks he climbs the ladder of the military to only find out that he's only a pawn of war. To change his fate and stop the galaxy to be handed over to an evil entity. He must finally accept he more than average.
The electronic message couldn't have been worse. I was hoping to just get a message from Venus. (Yes her parents named after the planet , and goddes of sex poor girl.) To tell me confirming when we'll meet for dinner. No it was the E.D.M.D Earth Defence and Millitary Department saying.
Dear Sam, Tsavir
This message is to call you to serve as Defending, military participant. ( Basically A nice way of saying your canon fodder buddy.) You are to report to nearest recruitment office in two day to recieve training, and briefing. If you do not comply you will be found punished and put on frontlines without training.
So I guess i should tell you about my self. Obviously my name is Sam Tsavir, Otherwise the rest is unknown. I live on a trading planet called Jursasam the specific city I lived or should rephrase that Lived in is Siphony. My job is a basiclly shipping and recieving so I organize matireal and ship out or in. How the military thinks a simple button presser like me to be military combantant is beyond me. Sure I've fired a few rifles for the sake to show off some natural talent in hunting. Or as A kid playing those virtual shoot em up games. That is still nothing close to being in a war zone.
My com device went off agian.
" Hi honey." The sweet voice of Venus filled my ears.
" Hi Venus. Are you able to come to Placeko?"
" Yes Sam." Ok I 'll see you momentarily. I Hopped into transport boot and was simply transformed into energy at the enterance of fancy restuaraunt.
" They your Sammy!" Venus said running into my arms she hugged me tight and we kissed.
"Sam you seem sad whats going on?" She asked
I didn't want to ruin maybe one of my last happy nights with Venus.I'll have to tell her later
" Oh is that so. I'm okay I was just thinking." I said putting on convincing fake smile.
The restauraunt was dimly lit for a romantic mood I guess the store targeted couples. Venus beautiful long sandy blond hair easily swayed side to side as we walked to our seats. We orderd a couple of simple trines which was an alien vine wich didn't have graped but a fruit much like an apple shape but it was much like a grape. afterwards we where served our dinner.
As I walked her back to her apartment I broke the news.

Shocking Number of Homeowners Are Underinsured
A homeowners insurance policy is one of the most common types of insurance that is sold today.
According to a survey by insurance provider MSB, nearly 75% of all homeowners are underinsured. The average amount that homeowners are underinsured for is 18%.
However, many people don't realize that they are underinsured, until it's too late. According to Liz Weston, of MSN money -nationwide, it is often only when disaster strikes that many people learn the truth about their inadequate insurance.
"After every natural disaster, too many people discover an awful truth: They don't have enough insurance to rebuild their homes," says Liz Weston.
Texas Insurance Agency, a Houston-based insurance provider, weighs in on the need for a comprehensive home insurance policy. "Homeowner'
Another risk with homeowners insurance, aside from inadequate coverage amounts, is that most homeowners policies don't provide coverage on an all-perils basis. Many policies exclude flooding and windstorm damage.
"Home insurance protects from vandalism, theft and most weather related damage, but it doesn't cover everything. In most cases, you'll need separate coverage for flooding, earthquakes and other disasters," explains Texas Insurance Agency.
While it may be devastating to discover you are underinsured after a disaster, it doesn't have to be this way. Experts advise homeowners to purchase the highest cap that they can afford, and recommend that homeowners check with their insurers to make sure their policies provide adequate coverage –especially in high-risk areas that are prone to flooding, hurricanes, earthquakes, or wildfires.
Homeowners should also make sure their policy includes a "loss of use" clause. In case of a disaster, this will provide temporary accommodation while the home is being rebuilt. It's also a good idea for homeowners to go for "replacement cost" rather than "actual cash value" insurance. This provides more coverage for personal belongings replacement. A policy that pays actual cash value, will pay out what the possessions were worth when they were destroyed, not what it would cost to replace them.
Don't wait until it's too late to find out that proper coverage was not taken out.
"Policies vary greatly," continues Texas Insurance Agency. "It is important to check with your agent to find out exactly what your policy covers."
Texas Insurance Agency is a Houston based insurance agency that provides insurance, and expert advice on homeowners policies. For more information, or to find out more about adequate homeowners coverage, visit Texas Insurance Agency today: www.insuranceagencytexas.com.

Would you take my hand?
We didn't go back inside.
As soon as you got up, you pulled me away from where the venue was. "Uh, Emma? The prom is that way?" I asked, unsure as to where you were leading me. "Micheal, have you SEEN my dress?" you responded, sounding slightly irritated, "I'm going back in there looking like this." "So where are we going?" I asked back, slightly surprised about what you had just said. You agreed to dance with me, but I didn't know where you wanted to go.
"You'll see," you answered, glancing back at me for a second. You were smiling, as if nothing happened.
As if you didn't come here with Chris.
As if you didn't get your dress ruined by some douche who wanted to continue a fight.
As if you didn't run outside to cry about how your night was ruined.
Was I really able to convince you otherwise?
"We're here," you said, interrupting my thoughts, "We can still hear the music from here, so it should be okay." I looked around to see where it was that you lead me. I saw daisies, tulips, roses growing everywhere in abundance. The scent of the flowers were aromatic, as if they were nature's perfume. There was the fish pond with the small waterfall, and the sound it makes relaxes me. I haven't let go of your hand yet.
"Do you remember this place?" you asked me, interrupting my thoughts again. Then again, you didn't have to ask. I still remember this place clearly. "This is where I first met you," I responded to you, much to your surprise, "This used to be the playground where I saw you on that swing." "It's been a long time since then," you responded, "They turned the whole thing into a park with a convention center," you continued, "How'd you recognize it?"
"It's hard to forget places where you've seen something beautiful," I answered, seeing you smile as I did, "Aside from the flowers that were growing, there was you, after all." "Oh please, Micheal, I wasn't beautiful. I was just a kid back then," you replied, looking down with a smile on your face.
"Yeah? Well, in my eyes, you were."
"This is the last song for the night, so everyone pair up with your partners because this night is about to end," the speakers from the convention center rang out. I didn't realize it was that late into the night already. You giggled, saying, "Well, what are you waiting for? Shall we dance?" "Yeah. Let's dance," I responded to you, looking back to where you were. "Can I Have This Dance?" played on the speakers. Typical high school prom song, what else were we supposed to expect?
But I didn't bother with it. Instead, I started pulling you closer to me as we danced in the center of the garden. That night was something I would never forget. As that one lamp lit up our dance floor, everything seemed like magic. The fireflies came out and danced around us as I spun you around. It may sound a bit cliche, but it seemed as if time slowed down when I was with you. I still haven't let you go.
"We should head back," you said as the song ended. Prom night was ending and you still seemed a bit disappointed. I looked at the flower bushes, looking for that one flower that reminded me of you. "Come here," I told you as I pulled you towards the flower bush. I plucked one out and placed it on your ear. It was a Stargazer.
"I don't want you to remember this night as the night Chris ruined everything," I told you as I fixed your hair, "I want you to remember this night as the night you were as beautiful as this flower. The night you were as amazing as a Stargazer."
"Micheal..." you responded, while holding on to me hand, "Can you promise me something?" "And what would that be?" I asked back at you, looking into your eyes that seemed to sparkle under the light of the fireflies.
"Promise me that you'll never let me go. That you'll always stay by my side like this."
"I promise."
I still haven't let go of your hand.

The Council has been working on its proposed budget and work programme for the Annual Plan 2017/2018 using what was included in the 2015-2025 Long Term Plan (LTP) for 2017/2018 as a starting point.
While most of our day-to-day work is going to schedule, delays with some key projects mean that our Annual Plan and rates changes for 2017/2018 will be a bit different from what we had planned for.
Total rates overall are proposed to increase by 3.64%, compared with 3.36% proposed in the 10 Year Plan. There have also been some changes to the timing of some scheduled projects, particularly water and sewerage projects and the Catlins road seal extension.
A few of our fees and charges are also changing including what we will be charging for waste at our transfer stations.
To explain these changes Council has put together an Annual Plan 2017 Update [PDF, 143 KB].
We invited you to provide feedback by 10 March 2017 and Council received 9 submissions in total from organisations and individuals and informal feedback from Facebook.
See full feedback booklet here [PDF, 3.3 MB].
The Mayor and Councillors met at the council meeting on 6th April to hear from those who provided feedback who wished to speak to Council. Council deliberated on the feedback and decided what amendments should be made to the Annual Plan. The council will meet in June to adopt the Annual Plan.
An agenda and report for the submission hearing meeting and the subsequent deliberations meeting will be available on Council's website on our Meeting Schedule & Agendas page.

Reviewed by Love shoes from California on Monday, June 10, 2013They are very cute shoes. When reading the range of responses in the reviews, it is clear to me that these are 2nds, and that we are playing the lottery a little bit when buying from this site these days. The appearance, and the footbed are as described in the pair I received - smooth and soft. In contrast to the reviewer who returned the shoes because they were too wide, I am finding that they are just slightly too narrow (my foot hangs over the side), and just slightly too short. I will likely return them.

In the complex arena of medical science, a neuropsychologist is defined as a physiologist whose chosen field of specialization is the ultimate understanding of the interrelationship between the human brain and the behaviours of people. Since the structure of the brain is too complex, it can definitely affect one's attitudes and behaviour to a certain extent.
Neuropsychologist vital roles
A neuropsychologist is mainly concerned in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of various disorders of the nervous system. These may include any of the following: Memory difficulties, mood problems, learning disorders and the different dysfunctions of the Central Nervous System. They help in reviewing the diagnosis of other doctors to come up with a much better diagnosis.
More so, he or she administers different standardized tests. These tests somehow measure the diverse areas of brain functioning. These can also assess personality, problem solving abilities and reasoning. In the same manner, it assesses the aspect of emotions of different people. In addition to this, a neuropsychologist conducts brain scans like CT scan and the Magnetic Resonance Imaging for the sake of diagnosis.
A neuropsychologist helps a treatment plan through an intensive understanding of the different levels of brain functioning, and how these have repercussions insofar as your day- to day activities are concerned. He or she devises effective treatment plans which include medications, surgery and rehabilitation therapies.
Check for more info about What does a neuropsychologist do.
How to become a neuropsychologist
To become a neuropsychologist, you have to earn a Bachelor's Degree from a reputable college or university.. Among the specific subject areas under this very challenging medical profession include the following: Psychology, Biology, Pre-Medicine and Neuroscience among others. The said degree requires every aspiring neuropsychologist to finish also a post doctoral degree in neuropsychology.
Aside from these educational requirements, most graduate school students should have a postgraduate degree in neuropsychology. However, if you want to earn a baccalaureate degree an undergraduate must be able to maintain the highest GPA grade as much as possible.
In like manner, if you have earned a baccalaureate degree it is not a safe guarantee about one's acceptance into a masteral or doctoral program unless you have met the specific criteria just like successfully passing the Graduate Record Examination. Thus, a future neuropsychologist must obtain the required letters of recommendation.
Neuropsychologist duties
A neuropsychologist performs the following in all sincerity.
These are:
Writes a detailed neuropsychological report in reference to the psychological or neuropsychological tests, self-report measurements, rating scales direct observations and interviews.
He or she must read the current literature and talk with a team of doctors and his or her colleagues and they are participating in different organizations.
To educate and supervise practicum students, psychology interns and the different staff of a hospital.
He/ She diagnoses various learning disabilities with developmental and organic causes.
Evaluates and assesses the intellectual abilities of a patient, his or her attention span, sensory motor functions, language and memory defects.
Must have clear distinctions about psychogenic and neurogenic syndromes or any other medical conditions which need immediate treatment.
Neuropsychologist areas of specialization
A neuropsychologist effectively diagnoses and treats the following medical conditions.
Memory Disorders which mainly cause or trigger cognitive decline.
Parkinson's Disease- This is a progressive illness of the CNS which is caused by tremors, muscular rigidity and slow movements to name a few.
Stroke- A medical malady wherein brain cells suddenly die due to oxygen loss. Hence, it is mainly caused by blood obstruction as far as its flow processes are concerned.

The latest news from academia, regulators
research labs and other things of interest

New state of matter detected in a two-dimensional material
|The researchers, including physicists from the University of Cambridge, measured the first signatures of these fractional particles, known as Majorana fermions, in a two-dimensional material with a structure similar to graphene. Their experimental results successfully matched with one of the main theoretical models for a quantum spin liquid, known as a Kitaev model. The results are reported in the journal Nature Materials ("Proximate Kitaev quantum spin liquid behaviour in a honeycomb magnet").
|This image shows the excitation of a spin liquid on a honeycomb lattice with neutrons. (Image: Genevieve Martin, Oak Ridge National Laboratory)
|Quantum spin liquids are mysterious states of matter which are thought to be hiding in certain magnetic materials, but had not been conclusively sighted in nature.
|The observation of one of their most intriguing properties -- electron splitting, or fractionalisation -- in real materials is a breakthrough. The resulting Majorana fermions may be used as building blocks of quantum computers, which would be far faster than conventional computers and would be able to perform calculations that could not be done otherwise.
|"This is a new quantum state of matter, which has been predicted but hasn't been seen before," said Dr Johannes Knolle of Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory, one of the paper's co-authors.
|In a typical magnetic material, the electrons each behave like tiny bar magnets. And when a material is cooled to a low enough temperature, the 'magnets' will order themselves, so that all the north magnetic poles point in the same direction, for example.
|But in a material containing a spin liquid state, even if that material is cooled to absolute zero, the bar magnets would not align but form an entangled soup caused by quantum fluctuations.
|"Until recently, we didn't even know what the experimental fingerprints of a quantum spin liquid would look like," said paper co-author Dr Dmitry Kovrizhin, also from the Theory of Condensed Matter group of the Cavendish Laboratory. "One thing we've done in previous work is to ask, if I were performing experiments on a possible quantum spin liquid, what would I observe?"
|Knolle and Kovrizhin's co-authors, led by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, used neutron scattering techniques to look for experimental evidence of fractionalisation in crystals of ruthenium chloride (RuCl3). The researchers tested the magnetic properties of the RuCl3 crystals by illuminating them with neutrons, and observing the pattern of ripples that the neutrons produced on a screen.
|A regular magnet would create distinct sharp spots, but it was a mystery what sort of pattern the Majorana fermions in a quantum spin liquid would make. The theoretical prediction of distinct signatures by Knolle and his collaborators in 2014 match well with what experimentalists observed on the screen, providing for the first time direct evidence of a quantum spin liquid and the fractionalisation of electrons in a two dimensional material.
|"This is a new addition to a short list of known quantum states of matter," said Knolle.
|"It's an important step for our understanding of quantum matter," said Kovrizhin. "It's fun to have another new quantum state that we've never seen before - it presents us with new possibilities to try new things."

Doping-Spain moving to shed drug-cheat haven label
By Braden Phillips
BARCELONA (Reuters) - For years considered a haven for drug cheats in sport, Spain is facing up to its chequered past and trying to clean its image with a beefed-up anti-doping law.
Legislators in the Iberian nation, home of such decorated champions as tennis player Rafa Nadal, Formula One driver Fernando Alonso and the world's best soccer team, have set up a new body to replace the national anti-doping agency (AEA) and armed it with enhanced powers under rules that took effect in July.
The Agency for the Protection of Health in Sport (AEPSAD) is an independent organization responsible for managing and carrying out doping tests rather than leaving them in the hands of national sports federations.
It will administer punishments such as levying fines and be able to suspend licenses and has already attracted warm praise from international officials.
"I think Spain's reputation is vastly improved with the changes they have made," David Howman, director general of the World Anti-Doping Association (WADA), told Reuters in a telephone interview.
"But now that the rules are in place, it depends on how they carry them out," he added. "They have to test the right people at the right time."
AEPSAD has already been flexing its muscles.
Right after the doping law came into effect, the agency conducted tests at the Spanish athletics championships that yielded three "adverse" findings, leading to the suspension of licenses until investigations have been completed. Continued...
