We discuss a possible generation of radio bursts preceding final stages of binary neutron star mergings which can be accompanied by short gamma-ray bursts. Detection of such bursts appear to be advantageous in the low-frequency radio band due to a time delay of ten to several hundred seconds required for radio signal to propagate in the ionized intergalactic medium. This delay makes it possible to use short gamma-ray burst alerts to promptly monitor specific regions on the sky by low-frequency radio facilities, especially by LOFAR. To estimate the strength of the radio signal, we assume a power-law dependence of the radio luminosity on the total energy release in a magnetically dominated outflow, as found in millisecond pulsars. Based on the planned LOFAR sensitivity at 120 MHz, we estimate that the LOFAR detection rate of such radio transients could be about several events per month from redshifts up to z∼1.3 in the most optimistic scenario. The LOFAR ability to detect such events would crucially depend on exact efficiency of low-frequency radio emission mechanism.

Commission to tackle pool policy in work sessions
City commissioners have decided to hold two work sessions to give the Parks and Recreation Department guidance on how to charge and admit people into the pools.
During a pre-meeting discussion Tuesday night, commissioners told city administrators they wanted to hold a work session June 11 to discuss the admission policies governing parents who are watching their children, and also readmitting pool-goers on the same day. A second work session would be held in the fall, after the pools close, to address pool rates, which most commissioners saw as too high for most of the community.
Commissioner Wynn Butler said day-to-day policies governing the pools are typically under the power of the parks and rec director. But due to the number of complaints received by commissioners about the new policies, commissioners have decided to give more guidance on those rules.
Butler said the problem with charging adults with small children to enter the pool is the mentality of the community. He said parents have always been allowed in for free. He said it would be hard to convince parents the new way is better for the community.
Commissioner Karen McCulloh said most parents don't want to sit at the pool watching their children. But a city rule requires children 8 and under to be accompanied by someone at least in their mid-teens. McCulloh contended that since the city effectively forces a parent of young children to be there, the pool should discount the rate for them.
"Going to the pool to sit and watch the kids is not fun," she said.
Commissioner Usha Reddi agreed and said at least one parent should be allowed to enter for free if the city is "imposing a mandate" that young children be accompanied by an adult.
McCulloh also suggested the wristbands used last year to allow kids to return to the pool on the same day be reinstated until they can find a better solution.
Deputy city manager Jason Hilgers said the problem with the wristbands was that kids were passing the bands through the fence and letting others in without paying.
Butler said kids were doing that when he was young, and will always find ways to get in the pools for free.
McCulloh said she was upset by the number of kids at the splash park who were there only because they could not afford to get in the pool. She also said that a large number of those kids were minorities. She said the city needed to look at the rate structure and find a way to give lower-income families' access to the pools.
"Sales tax is paying for these pools and it is a regressive tax," she said. "So the poor are paying more."
Sales taxes are covering the bond payments that allowed the pools to be upgraded last year, although the tax revenues are not a part of the pool's budget.
Hilgers said the pools were not making a profit because it costs about $600,000 a year to run them and they were only clearing about $400,000 a year, which only covered the cost of employees.
McCulloh said the city was "also putting dollars in other things that aren't breaking even" and the pools were designed to give people a place to go during the summer that would encourage fitness every day. The "poor" were being excluded by the cost of admission.
Reddi said lowering the rates might actually increase attendance and therefore increase income.
Hilgers said if the family pass was reinstated, Reddi could be right.
Butler said they should wait until the end of the season to address the rate structure and family passes. For this year, he said they should only address accompanying parents with children under 8 and wristbands for re-entering the pool on the same day.
Concealed carry
In addition to the pools, commissioners were briefed on the new regulations allowing concealed carry in public buildings.
City Attorney Bill Raymond said the city had two choices: do nothing and remove the "no guns" signs from city buildings, or apply for a six-month extension in order to research the feasibility and develop a plan to implement by Jan. 1.
Matta said he did not want city commission meetings to be like going to the airport. He said there are no security guards at city hall currently, and they have not had an issue.
Raymond said the new law would not only allow people to carry guns inside city buildings with conceal carry permits, but also government employees coming to work.
Commissioners agreed the only city building that may need security was the municipal court, but they wanted to hear feedback and also wanted to look at how others cities have developed security plans before making any final decisions. Commissioners will hold a work session to address the concealed carry issue June 18.

Australia's largest city is tantalisingly close to achieving a median house price of $1 million, despite an expected fall in price growth.
Propell National Valuers is predicting that Sydney house values will grow 13 per cent over the next 12 months, pushing the median price from $880,000 to $994,400.
That projected growth rate is a decrease from the 16.4 per cent growth rate of the previous 12 months.
The report also forecast that Sydney's median unit price will increase from $638,000 to $669,900, with price growth slowing from 8.8 per cent to 5.0 per cent.
Propell has predicted that Melbourne house price growth will slow from 9.8 to 8.0 per cent, while unit growth will slow from 2.9 to 1.0 per cent.
This will push the median house price from $620,000 to $669,600 and the median unit price from $480,000 to $484,800.
For the rest of the country, house price growth should remain steady at 2.3 per cent, while unit prices will worsen from a 0.1 per cent decline to a 0.4 per cent decline.
The fall in unit prices shows the start of a correction period, with an oversupply of units in many capital cities, according to Propell.

"Stay Nosey for Life": Advice On How To Run A Magazine
There are lots of reasons why you might want to start your own magazine. Maybe you've got a great idea you want to share with the world, maybe you want to represent a culture that doesn't get enough coverage or maybe you're just excited about the idea of making something new. Whatever your reasons there's no doubting that creating your own publication can be a daunting task. One person who knows exactly what it takes to produce a beautiful, well-made and thought-provoking magazine is Andrea Kurland, Editor of Huck Magazine. For almost a decade Huck has been producing fascinating articles and interviews covering extraordinary artists, exciting subcultures and unconventional ideas, and Andrea has been with them every step of the way. We asked Andrea to give us some advice on what it takes to run a magazine.
Ask yourself: why should people care?
Magazines have to resonate in order to stay alive. It doesn't matter how many people you reach, whether it's dozens or hundreds of thousands, but growing an audience comes with its own peculiar set of responsibilities. This magazine you cherish, once it's out in the world, no longer belongs to you. It belongs to the people who pick it up and connect with the stories on its pages. In the age of the self-made indie mag, it's not enough to be a 'passion project'; good magazines are not the reflection of a single person's inner world. They may bear the thumbprints of the people who make them, but they have to speak to the readers who pick them up. So keep hold of those passions that are your first-loves - celebrate them by telling the best stories you can - but never forget this simple question: why should anyone care? Give people a reason to read every last word you publish by showing them how it's relevant and meaningful to their lives.
Be more toddler and stay nosey for life; follow those trails that spark your interest and ask who, what, why, when and how.
Stay curious
Stories are everywhere. They're on the street on your daily commute; they live inside every person you walk by. But the best ones don't come ready-made or pre-packaged for your pages; they start with a lead that sparked the interest of a single curious mind. So be more toddler and stay nosey for life; follow those trails that spark your interest and ask who, what, why, when and how. Start conversations and question everything because you never know where it may lead you.
Signpost, signpost, signpost!
Direct readers to the heart of your stories from the minute they land on a page. Headlines, standfirsts and strong intros are a little tripartite coalition that could make or break your story. Get them wrong, or under-estimate their power, and no one will read the thousand-plus words that follow.
Surround yourself with talented people
Independence doesn't stem from doing everything alone. Magazines are only as strong as the network that underpins them, so surround yourself with good people who do things better than you. Reach out to people whose work you admire - welcome them in as collaborators and friends. And don't ignore the people who flock to you - they're coming to you for a reason. Then guard those relationships with all your might; they'll fulfill you in ways you can't imagine.
There'll be long hours and late nights, tough decisions and hard conversations. But here's the thing: you'll love every goddamn minute of this addictive, magic-carpet ride.
Be pedantic...
There will come a point, as deadline looms, where you contemplate letting something slide. Will anyone really notice if that en dash is in fact a hyphen? Truth is: probably not. But you will. If you don't want to suffer the suckerpunch of a glaring blooper then stay up for that extra hour to triple-check things before pushing print. Dial in the details; dot those i's, cross those t's, run yourself into a Wikipedia rut fact-checking every nook and cranny. And when the mag comes back with that ridiculous typo - which trust me, it almost always will - stare that sucker in the face then move on to the next issue.
Don't be precious...
Sometimes the thing that sounds great in your head sounds a little less great to others. Pass your work by someone with fresh eyes to test whether they get it. Then open yourself up to feedback. Often the best ideas come from abandoning one thing in order to get to something better.
But never settle
Focus on the thing you do really well and keep that bar raised high. Maybe you pride yourself on amazing illustrations, photography or design. If something isn't up to scratch, don't be afraid to kill it. It may be harder to start all over again but it's always worth it in the end.
It's Groundhog Day. Embrace it.
The life-cycle of every issue of your magazine will come to feel like the entire cycle of life. You'll start out all innocent and wide-eyed, scouring for shiny things that you can pick up and play with. Then you'll come-of-age feeling totally overwhelmed when you realise that this isn't just a game. Spurred on by a mix of adrenaline and fear, you'll throw yourself into a bout of hard graft and become a little obsessive and single-minded, possibly falling into a daze of multi-tasking that leaves you disoriented and a little manic. There'll be long hours and late nights, tough decisions and hard conversations. There'll be births and deaths - ideas that come as quickly as they go - and more than a few surprises. Then just as you reach the top of the peak and raise your hands to fist-pump the air, someone will knock you back down the hill and make you hike back up all over again. But here's the thing: you'll love every goddamn minute of this addictive, magic-carpet ride.

1. Get into good habits: Go to bed at the same time every day. If you can't fall asleep within 20 minutes, get up and only go back to bed when you feel sleepy. Ensure that your bedroom is dark and quiet.
2. Take baths not showers: A bath 30 minutes before going to bed improves sleep, say researchers at the University of Texas.
3. Have more sex: An orgasm produces the hormone oxytocin, which gives a feeling of well-being and inertia. The sedative effects of the oxytocin-rush help sleep to come more easily.
4. Try acupuncture: Trial results suggest that most insomniacs could benefit from acupuncture. Effects can last up to 18 months - and one patient regained her lost sense of smell, too.
5. Use earplugs: Noise is a common cause of sleep problems, and earplugs work in six out of 10 cases, according to research in Germany. If plugs don't work, try masking noise with soft music.
6. Use lavender: According to research in France, the aroma of lavender oil can be as effective as prescription tranquillisers. In a research study in London, an insomniac enjoyed her first complete night's sleep for four years after using aromatherapy oils. Lavender oil can be used in massage or in the bath.
7. Take exercise: Researchers at Stanford University found that adults who took part in 16 weeks of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise significantly lessened their sleep problems. The best time to exercise is five to six hours before bedtime, and it should be strenuous enough to make you sweat.
8. Have cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT): More effective than sleeping pills, according to Harvard University academics. The aim of CBT is to improve sleep by getting rid of negative attitudes towards it.
9. Take valerian: The most commonly used herb for severe insomnia, valerian acts as a sedative, making falling asleep easier, and allowing for deeper sleep cycles. Take it 30 minutes before going to bed.
10. Don't count sheep: In a study at Oxford University, 50 insomniacs were asked either to imagine a tranquil scene while trying to get to sleep, or to count sheep. The sheep-counters took up to 20 minutes longer to nod off, probably because they were bored.
1. Don't crash diet: A reason why eight out of 10 diets fail is that they are too strict. Research at the Mayo Clinic suggests a five-point plan: eat breakfast every day; eat a variety of foods; limit daily intake of saturated fat, cholesterol and salt; cut back on sugar by using whole fruits rather than juices, and avoid sugary soft drinks and alcohol; and eat smaller portions.
2. Beware fad diets: Doctors who reviewed low- carbohydrate, high-protein and low-fat diets expressed concern about their effectiveness. "The efficacy and safety of many popular diets remains unproven,'' they warn in Nutrition in Clinical Care.
3. Consider supplements: There are more than 50 supplements promoted for weight loss, including conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), chromium, hydroxycitric acid and pyruvate. Research found CLA reduced body fat by 9 per cent after one year in healthy men and women.
4. Eat calcium: It is thought that the more calcium there is in a fat cell, the more fat it will burn. American research suggests that three or four daily servings of low-fat dairy products can help adjust the body's fat-burning machinery.
5. Take small bites: If you can't reduce what you eat, make your mouth smaller. The £200 DDS device is moulded to fit over the roof of the mouth, and forces the wearer to take smaller bites.
6. Use your sense of smell: The Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago exposed 3,000 people to concentrated food smells when they were feeling hungry. Results show they lost 2per cent in body weight each month.
7. Get a good night's sleep: Levels of an appetite-suppressing hormone dropped 18 per cent when volunteers at Chicago University slept for only fours hours for two nights running.
8. Eat eggs: Leucine, an essential amino acid found in eggs, boosts the loss of body fat.
9. Try group therapy: Research in Australia suggests that dieters who are on unsupported diets had increased stress levels.
10. Have a romance: Psychologists at Indiana University found that those in a relationship were more likely to be happy and less likely to be overweight.Other research shows men who divorce are more likely to put on weight.
1. Get moving: Exercising at the right time of the menstrual cycle is important for women. University of Adelaide research shows that exercising at the later menstrual phase burns more fat and helps women to feel less tired.
2. Get hypnotised: Doctors who treated a group of women with hot flushes with sessions of hypnotism say that the frequency and severity of the flushes was significantly reduced.
3. Get tested: A new DIY test for the start of the menopause means that women will be able to start treatment months earlier. The simple test, similar to a home pregnancy test, is designed to pick up the telltale early hormonal signs of the onset of the menopause. Research has now shown that the £8 test is up to 99 per cent effective.
4. Try red clover extract: This can reduce the frequency of hot flushes, and its isoflavones, a type of phytoestrogens, are thought to be responsible for the beneficial effect. The Dutch study, based on 30 women, showed that after four weeks, those who were taking the supplement had fewer symptoms.
5. Resist cravings: In women, progesterone can cause cravings, especially for carbohydrates. The reason women often have more cravings just before their menstrual flow is that progesterone levels are at their highest. Don't buy the foods you crave the most.
6. Learn about the andropause: The medical jury is still out on whether men suffer a male version of the menopause. But research is increasingly showing that men can benefit from testosterone replacement therapy in the form of patches, gels or implanted pellets.
7. Practise reiki: It is supposed to balance the various systems of the body, including the hormonal levels. Some work suggests that Reiki can normalise menstrual cycles, reduce cramping and reduce hot flushes.
8. Take evening primrose oil: Used for pre-menstrual syndrome and mastalgia or sore breasts. Research results are conflicting, but some show a significant reduction in breast pain.
9. Eat well: Flaxseeds are a good source of concentrated phytoestrogens and can reduce menopausal symptoms. Most fruit is rich in phytoestrogens, as is soy.
10. Try melatonin: Described by Dr William Regelson as the natural, age-reversing, disease-fighting, sex-enhancing hormone, research suggests it can be beneficial for men and women in mid-life to boost flagging hormone levels. One team of researchers are using melatonin instead of progesterone in a new form of HRT.
1. Spinach: Contains lutein, which helps to maintain healthy vision and is thought to offer protection against eye disorders. Also a good source of folic acid, which helps prevent birth defects, including spina bifida.
2. Broccoli: Contains compounds that protect against cancer, as well as vitamins A and C. Also helps to lower cholesterol and maintain a healthy immune system, and may offer some protection against bowel and thyroid cancer.
3. Brussels sprouts: Contain sinigrin, which is thought to offer protection against cancer. Vitamin B1, or thiamine, keeps the nerves and muscles healthy.
4. Watermelons: Contain the anti-cancer agent lycopene. Ripe, red flesh is the best indication of the most beneficial fruit.
5. Berries: The top three antioxidant fruits areblueberries, blackberries and strawberries. Called anthocyanins, these are thought to help against cancer. Ellagic acid does the same.
6. Lettuce: Leaves contain fibre, folate, antioxidants and small amounts of important vitamins and minerals. Lollo Rosso has 100 times more antioxidants than ordinary lettuce.
7. Carrots: Rich source of beta-carotene and alpha-carotene, which help to prevent cellular damage. Beta-carotene is thought to help the immune system. Also contain vitamin A, vital for growth, healthy eyes, bones and skin. A deficiency can lead to mouth ulcers, dry eyes, night blindness and conjunctivitis.
8. Onions: Sulphur compounds - which give off the strong smell in onions and garlic - help to lower cholesterol and maintain a healthy immune system. Onions also contain quercetin, a pigment that protects against heart disease. Yellow and red onions contain more.
9. Peppers: Contain capsaicinoids, which give peppers their spicy flavour. They are also one of the best sources of vitamin C.
10. Bananas: Can help to lower blood pressure, says the American Heart Association. Researchers say a diet high in potassium, calcium and magnesium - all in bananas - and low in fat and salt can reduce diastolic blood pressure, andlower the risk of stroke and heart disease.
1. Take more exercise: Moderately strenuous exercise can increase libido in menopausal women, researchers claim, while academics at Boston University found that walking briskly for two miles a day reduced a man's risk of developing erectile dysfunction.
2. Boost your androgens: Adding male hormones to HRT can restore falling libido in women. The decline of natural androgen levels after menopause is an important factor in the decline of sexual interest, say researchers at Ghent University.
3. Use testosterone: Rub-on testosterone gels and patches have long-term benefits and can help men as young as 19. Research, based on men aged 19 to 67 who used a gel for three years, showed it had lasting and positive effects on libido. Some research shows a similar effect for women.
4. Watch 'The Godfather: Part ll' and stand clear: Libido-boosting testosterone levels in men increased by up to 30 per cent in men who watched this movie, say University of Michigan researchers. Viewing a romantic film lowered testosterone, but increased levels of the attentive hormone progesterone.
5. Have a vasectomy: One of the earliest studies into the sexual effects of vasectomy found that men were twice as likely to have a rise in libido as a loss of sex drive.
6. Eat oysters: The long-held belief that oysters are an aphrodisiac may be true, probably because of their high levels of zinc.
7. Consider pheromones: These natural body odours increase libido. Psychologists at San Francisco University, who added them to perfumes, found those who had the pheromones had more sex and dates.
8. Take zinc supplements: University of Rochester researchers restored sperm counts and libido in infertile men using zinc supplements.
9. Learn about DHEA: Australian research has found that low levels of the hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) are linked to low sex drive in women.
10. Have light therapy: A study at the University of California shows that one hour of bright light therapy can boost the levels of a pituitary hormone that increases testosterone and libido in men.
1. Shed some weight: For every excess kilogram you carry, you cut 20 weeks off your life expectancy. Doctors who have analysed 25 years of research claim that this may explain why women, who generally have smaller bodies than men, live longer.
2. Be a vegetarian: Being vegetarian for 20 years or more adds four years to the average lifespan, according to a study based on 7,100 Adventists, who largely do not eat meat. A UK report also shows lower mortality rates among vegetarians.
3. Have a happy marriage: Being happily married for more than 10 years increases life expectancy for both men and women. But divorce and remarriage raises the risk of dying early, says a report in the journal Health Psychology.
4. And have an intelligent wife: Being married to a more intelligent woman can halve a man's risk of heart disease and premature death, according
to research based on 20,000 men.
5. Be religious: Regular worshippers live longer, and are generally healthier. The social aspect of religion is thought to be significant.
6. Get a pet: People with pets live longer. Pets make their owners feel optimistic, relaxed and less stressed, all of which lower blood pressure. Families who own a dog or cat make fewer visits to their doctors, according to research at Cambridge University.
7. Avoid lie-ins: People who sleep for more than eight hours a day have shorter lives. According to research in the Archives of General Psychiatry, adults who have between six and seven hours' sleep live longer.
8. Eat chocolate: People who eat chocolate live longer than those who eat sweets regularly or not at all, according to researchers at Harvard University. This could be because chocolate contains phenols, which may protect against heart disease and cancer.
9. Move to the country:A study at Tokyo Medical University shows that people whose homes look out on green spaces live up to five years longer than those in built-up areas.
10. Have lots of kids: The more children a woman has, the longer she lives, says a report in The Psychology of Ageing. The increased contact with and support from children and grandchildren in old age is thought to be a contributory factor.
1. Look at your lifestyle: The key factors that make people look older, according to research by St Louis University, are being 20 pounds over- or underweight, having cholesterol levels greater than 220, being unmarried and over 40, drinking caffeinated beverages and having depression.
2. Try botulinum toxin: Botox has replaced diamonds as the older girl's best friend, and is used to iron out and firm up wrinkles, foreheads, necks and almost anything that moves more than it should.
3. Consider cosmetic surgery: Up to 70,000 people a year spend more than £200m going under the knife. Apart from face-and eye-lifts, lip jobs are among the most effective. The £300-plus injections give a fuller, more youthful-looking mouth for women. Hair transplants are best for men.
4. Improve your diet: The 15 to 20 square feet of skin is the packaging that needs to look young. Drink eight to 10 pints of water a day and cut down on fatty foods.
5. Avoid the sun: The sun gives skin that leathery look. "There are some women who look 20 years younger because they prevent sun damage, which causes about 85 per cent of age-related skin changes,'' says Dr Richard Glogau, of the University of California.
6. Take more exercise: Research based on Japanese women, aged 20 to 70, showed that those who exercise regularly appeared five years younger. They had better cardiovascular endurance and improved skin texture.
7. Have regular sex: Couples with a healthy sex life can look 10 years younger than those who don't, say researchers at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital. It's thought to be because sex reduces stress and leads to better sleep.
8. Stay married: A happy marriage keeps people looking younger, say researchers in Canada who gave pictures of married, single, divorced and widowed men and women to an "age jury". The marrieds looked younger.
9. Make music: Playing a wind instrument can improve muscle tone and appearance. It keeps skin taut and looking younger. An hour of blowing burns 200 calories.
10. Get a man about the house: Sharing her life with a man can help a woman to stay young and healthy. Researchers found that women who live with a man have better immune systems. One theory is that it may be the effects of natural male odours, or pheromones.
1. Take exercise: Vigorous, preferably aerobic, exercise can help counter stress and depression. The benefits start to show after about six weeks of exercise five times a week.
2. Meditate: Research at the University of Michigan found that twice-daily transcendental meditation sessions help students to be calmer, feel happier and get along better with other people.
3. Think positive: Positive thoughts make for a calmer and less irritable life. "If you wake up in a bad mood, then close your eyes and visualise the day going smoothly,'' says Dr Dennis Gersten, a San Diego psychiatrist.
4. Have frequent sex: Women who have sex frequently are calmer. Researchers believe mood-changing chemicals in semen get into the bloodstream, and act like an antidepressant.
5. Have sex young: German scientists found that the earlier in life a woman has sex, the less stressed she is as an adult. They found that the lowest levels of stress hormone were among those who had had sex at the youngest age. A similar effect was found in men.
6. Listen to music: Music can be as effective as drugs at lowering blood pressure. Research at Harvard University shows that heart bypass surgery patients need fewer drugs when music is playedto them. Music also deepens breathing, which has a calming effect.
7. Sing: Communal singing is good for mind and body, say researchers at the University of Newcastle. As well as burning off 150 calories an hour, it improves breathing and muscle tone, alleviates depression, stammering, stress, low self-esteem, asthma and chronic pain.
8. Eat carbs: Research shows that they increase levels of serotonin, which in turn regulates your mood.
9. Get a hobby: People who have a hobby are more relaxed and less irritable. It's thought that the hobby provides a distraction from the pressurised part of people's lives.
10. Eat out: Those who eat out with friends are less stressed and less depressed. A study in Germany showed that dining out formally acts as closure to the day's stressful events.
1. Exercise regularly: Daily exercise increases levels of good cholesterol, lowers high blood pressure, promotes healthy blood sugar levels, improves the immune system, and works against cancer and heart disease. Try to get warm and slightly out of breath for about 30 minutes at a stretch.
2. Try pilates: Pilates is a system of about 500 controlled exercises that are said to engage the mind while conditioning the body. It is a blend of strength and flexibility training that improves posture, reduces stress and creates lean muscles without bulk.
3. Learn yoga: Yoga can boost circulation, which positively affects the respiratory and nervous systems. It can also benefit people with arthritis, osteoporosis, digestive disorders and depression.
4. Take a swim: Research at the University of Louisiana indicates that swimming may keep bones healthy. Post-menopausal women at risk of osteoarthritis are advised to do weight-bearing exercises to strengthen bones, but swimming can also have a beneficial effect.
5. Have plenty of sex: Sexual intercourse burns up about 150 calories in half an hour compared with 114 for yoga and 129 for dancing. Sex boosts circulation and counteracts stress.
6. Do t'ai chi: Some research suggests that t'ai chi ch'uan has beneficial effects on cardio-respiratory systems, muscles, joints and posture. It has also been shown to reduce the likelihood of falls by its elderly practitioners.
7. Wear a pedometer: Scientists at the University of Prince Edward Island, Canada, found pedometers increased the incentive to get fit. Over 12 weeks the resting heart rate of volunteers went down, and walkers lost inches off their waists. "It's like wearing a personal trainer on your waistband," says Dr Suzanne Henson, of the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
8. Take up walking: Regular, brisk walking can reduce the amount spent on medication by 18 per cent, according to scientists in Japan. They found that men and women aged over 40 who walked for up to an hour at a time were less prone to chronic diseases.
9. Keep moving: Simply walking a mile a day, or taking moderate exercise three times a week, substantially reduces the risk of heart disease, say researchers. Sedentary people have almost double the risk of developing coronary artery disease.
10. Walk the dog: This gets rid of about 240 calories an hour. Studies also suggest that dog owners suffer less stress, have lower blood pressure, and are happier.
1. Drink lots of water: Hydration has a big impact on energy levels. Research shows that ignoring thirst signals can lead to impaired physical performance, a need for increased effort to do physical work and difficulty concentrating.
2. Eat a varied diet: The best food for boosting energy are fruits, vegetables, whole grains, yoghurt, peanut butter, soy and lean meats, say researchers at the University of South Florida.
3. Have regular meals: People who skip meals often get tired because they experience blood-sugar swings resulting in fatigue. Eat at least three meals a day.
4. Eat iron-rich foods: Iron is essential in the reactions that produce energy from food, and, if levels are low, the body may not be able to use all the energy available. To improve iron absorption from foods such as meat and fish, eat them with foods rich in vitamin C, such as tomatoes.
5. Fill up on protein: Eating protein helps to prevent big fluctuations in blood-glucose levels after eating foods high in carbohydrate. It also blocks the action of serotonin, a chemical messenger that induces feelings of fatigue. It may also increase levels of dopamine, a chemical in the brain that contributes to alertness.
6. Snack on energy bars: Even a small energy bar may provide as many as 300 calories, mostly in the form of simple carbohydrates.
7. Get enough sleep: One of the biggest causes of low energy levels is not getting enough good sleep. Most people need seven to eight hours a night.
8. Have energy drinks: These are increasingly popular, and most contain large doses of caffeine and other legal stimulants.
9. Do aerobics: Aerobic activity trains the heart, lungs and cardiovascular system to deliver oxygen more quickly to every part of the body, which combats fatigue.
10. Take supplements: A wide range of supplements are used to boost flagging energy, including coenzyme Q10, carnitine, fish oil and calcium. But scientific evidence for their benefits is still thin on the ground.Reuse content

Vinny, you've got the sick fits but I really doubt they will be that cheap. GDFT is known to always charge around 10-15% for more than prices regularly found on the internet. Like all their dunks (Taxi Cabs, Linoleums, etc.), Air Maxes, Stabs, EVERYTHING. I have visited GDFT Toronto like almost a dozen times, only to leave with nothing. My philosophy is, if I can get them for at least $20-30 cheaper on the internet, than why not? The Atmos Elephant Pack has so much hype, either they will sell out extremely fast, or sell at semi-rape prices, or a combination of both. GDFT is a great store to check out, but they never ever can compete in terms of pricing. As well, even though their selection is great, their stock is always shot.2 Weeks ago in Canada

This was my first time using fondant. It didn't go too smoothly! I almost gave up but I really wanted to get at least one under my belt! I wasn't sure if it needed something else or not? It looks a little plain. I got the pattern for the baby shoes from JaneK, thanks Jane! It's white almond cake with strawberry cream filling. Thanks for looking! P.S. How do you not get creases along the sides on the bottom? EER!

In a deal that allies two of the most influential families in the nation's sugar industry, Savannah Foods and Industries announced yesterday that it would merge with the domestic sugar operations of Flo-Sun Inc., the private holding company of the Fanjul family of Florida.
The resulting public company, to be called Florida Crystals, will have annual revenues of about $1.5 billion, assets of about $1 billion, and a grip on the sugar market that will reach from cane fields in Florida to sugar canisters in kitchens across America. No valuation was put on the deal, which remains subject to approval by Savannah Foods shareholders.
If yesterday's stock market reaction is any indicator, however, some of those shareholders took a sour view of the deal. The stock lost $2.9375 a share to close at $15.75 on the New York Stock Exchange,
Though the value of the stock swap remained uncertain, some professional investors complained that the deal did not adequately reflect the inherent strength of Savannah Foods, whose stock price had been deflated by erratic earnings and a lack of Wall Street analyst attention.Continue reading the main story
One of the largest sugar refiners in the country, Savannah Foods is perhaps best known for its Dixie Crystals sugar brand, which has a market share of more than 80 percent in the Southeastern United States and 20 percent nationally.
The company was founded by Benjamin Oxnard and Dick Sprague, sugar planters who moved their refining business from Louisiana to Savannah, Ga., in 1917. William W. Sprague 3d, the current president and chief executive, is the eighth generation of the Oxnard and Sprague families to be involved in company management. As president, he succeeded his father, an influential spokesman for the sugar industry as chairman of its trade organization from 1976 to 1981.
Flo-Sun, founded in 1960 by an exiled family that had dominated the sugar industry in pre-revolutionary Cuba since the 19th century, also brings a substantial business and potent political connections to the marriage. The company's domestic sugar business, based in Palm Beach, encompasses more than 180,000 acres of cane fields in Florida, three sugar mills and a rice mill to handle the rice produced as a rotation crop for the sugar fields. The family's sugar operations and resort property in the Dominican Republic and some domestic property are not included in the proposed merger.
Two sons of the founder of the United States operation, Alfonso Fanjul (pronounced fan-HOOL) and his brother Jose Fanjul, both contributors to national political campaign coffers, run the family empire today -- and will be chief executive and chief operating officer of the new company. Mr. Sprague will be president of the new company's sugar refining business.
As those roles suggest, control of the new publicly traded company will remain firmly in the hands of the intensely private Fanjuls, through an ownership stake that will give the family and affiliated shareholders eight times the voting rights of other shareholders. Specifically, Flo-Sun and affiliated shareholders will own 58.5 percent of the new company's stock, but wield 83 percent of the voting strength. Savannah Foods' shareholders will own the remaining 41.5 percent of the new company.
Neither Mr. Sprague nor the Fanjuls seemed alarmed by the stock market's reaction to their proposal, which was structured by investment bankers from Goldman, Sachs for the Fanjuls, and Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette for Savannah Foods. The terms of the deal, which is expected to close in October, are not affected by stock price fluctuations, they said.
Mr. Sprague -- whose father once boasted that ''with people I know by first name I can come up with 50 percent of the ownership'' of the company -- said he was sure shareholders would see the deal as ''the best way to maximize the value of the company's sugar business and gain the financial strength to diversify into nonsugar products.''
Yesterday's reaction, he added, may have been exacerbated by arbitragers who bought the stock heavily on Monday on rumors of a deal. The company's stock gained $1 a share that day on volume that was several times the average trading volume in the stock. (Such anomalous patterns in advance of a merger announcement frequently raise red flags with regulators, but Mr. Sprague said the company was not aware of any formal inquiry yet.)
Alfonso Fanjul, too, said he was confident that investors would ultimately endorse the merger. ''We are all satisfied that it is a fair deal for both of us,'' he said, noting that the transaction left the combined company with an integration of raw materials and downstream processing, a strong balance sheet and little debt.
And how will the famously tight-lipped Fanjul brothers adapt to the job of running a public company, beset by demands for information from Wall Street analysts, market regulators, institutional investors and financial reporters?
''That's a fair question,'' Mr. Fanjul said. ''But the family won't have a problem with it -- we have run the company as if it were a public company. We've run a tight ship. So they are all on board.''Continue reading the main story

CASP7 plays a crucial role in cancer development and chemotherapy efficacy. We, therefore, explored whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the CASP7 gene can modulate outcomes of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.
We systematically genotyped 17 SNPs of CASP7 first in a discovery set of 279 patients with advanced NSCLC treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and then replicated the results in an independent set of 384 patients, in whom we evaluated associations with overall survival (OS) and progress-free survival (PFS) by Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox hazards regression analysis.
In both discovery and validation sets as well as in the pooled analysis, heterozygotes of CASP7 rs2227310 and rs4353229 as well as rs12415607 variant allele were strongly associated with a better OS of NSCLC (in the pooled sample: adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.73; 95% CI = 0.59-0.90; P = .003; HR, 0.72; 95% CI = 0.59-0.89; P = .002; and HR, 0.76; 95% CI = 0.62-0.94; P = .009; respectively). In stratified analyses of the pooled data set, treated with paclitaxel, individuals carrying variant allele of rs2227310, rs4353229, and rs12415607 had significantly improved OS (HR, 0.60; 95% CI = 0.41-0.87; P = .008; HR, 0.58; 95% CI = 0.39-0.84; P = .004; and HR, 0.61; 95% CI = 0.42-0.89; P = .010; respectively).
This study provides evidence that genetic variations of CASP7 may modulate OS and PFS of patients with advanced NSCLC treated with platinum-based chemotherapy.

Tomorrow is my first day of Doggcrapp!
In efforts to be stage-worthy by summer of '07, I am starting Doggcrapp (DC) training tomorrow. I'm excited as hell to train only 3 days/week now that school is kicking my butt all 7.
Anybody had any good results or tips? Middleweights, here I come!
I've seen some DC routines that have a rep range that is a bit too high for my liking, but whatever the case, g'luck with achieving your goal bro :thumbup:
any good links for the un-educated?
Bimmerchop - ever competed?
Nah, I wanted to at one point, but no longer plan on it.
Well I've now had two workouts using Doggcrapp and I'm really liking it, but on training days, I'm going to have to up my calories even more than usual because of the intensity required.
Day 1
Incline smith press - 215x13RP
Military smith press - 170x4 (bit off more than I could chew especially with trying to baby my shoulder)
Tricep rope pushdowns - 80x16
Barbell rows - 225x17 RP
Cable rows - 285x13RP
Hang with 100lbs between my legs - 32seconds, 17 seconds.
Day 2
Barbell curls - 105x15
Hammer curls - 50x12
Standing calves - 500x23
SLDL - 225x10
Hack squats - 315x17
I started feeling a bit nauseous on my 2nd warmup set of SLDLs and ended up pissed off at my results for the working sets of SLDLs and hack squats, but I was suprised I even made it at the gym at all as I'm just getting over a mild case of food poisoning.

You bought your Accord because its fuel efficiency and driver satisfaction agreed with your nature; so why would you be okay with second rate when it comes to the highest quality auto parts? It's not all the time that you find yourself in need of a replacement Blower Motor for your car or truck. Your Honda dealership isn't the only place to find the highest quality parts to repair your Accord. Obviously, you bought your Accord because you knew that you wanted Japanese engineering and a brand you can trust both impeccably combined into one vehicle.
Before cars and trucks were built with the ability to cool their interiors, they had the ability to heat them. The heater blower motor in your Honda Accord will be located on or near the firewall, and can usually be accessed through the glove box or engine compartment (depending on the vehicle). The job of your Honda Accord heater blower motor is to blast a constant stream of air through the fins on your heater core into the cab. If your heater blower stops spinning, then you can be sure cold days are ahead inside your car or truck.
Don't let a Blower Motor repair spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by installing anything but the best repair parts. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents on the phone with enough expertise to help you buy the appropriate Honda Accord part for your needs. Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs.

Early stages • HoB scheme launched in July 2006, before National Healthy Start scheme • Health Visitors issued Abidec for children, and GPs were asked to prescribe calcium and ergocalciferol to women • Gradual increase in issuing, and HS children's vitamins became available in November 2006, followed by women's in April 2007 How does the HoB scheme work? • Women should be advised to collect Healthy Start Vitamins by GP, midwife or practice nurse, once pregnancy is confirmed, and given a "post card" to record issues • Health Visitors give children's drops at the primary visit, usually when baby is around 2 weeks old • Parents should then request further supplements for their child or themselves from reception of their local health centre, or at a Children's Centre or pharmacy Access • Supplements can be obtained at – 14 Health Centres and 5 GP practices – All 29 Children's Centres – 29 pharmacies which also offer free pregnancy testing Availability • Health Centres tend to only issue vitamins when baby clinics are running • Children's Centres provide vitamins all hours they are open • Pharmacies provide out of hours access, and may be important for working and/or first time mothers • GPs aware of vitamin D deficiency, so some have chosen to issue at practices Awareness • Several qualitative studies carried out by students over life of campaign show public awareness gradually increasing • Logo developed with public involvement, used for leaflets and posters • Media coverage, and bus adverts, as well as campaign by shopkeepers • Professional awareness high, especially among health visitors Leaflets available •Available in community languages (Urdu, Bengali, Punjabi, Somali, Arabic, Cantonese, Polish and French), and as a simple multi-language leaflet which just says who is eligible and where to get the vitamins Challenges and barriers • Reception staff act as "gatekeepers", and may try to ration • Clinical staff, particularly midwives, have large caseloads and other priorities • Midwives don't have vitamins in the consultation room: signpost to reception • DH supplies can be erratic • The public don't feel vitamin D deficient Potential risk? • Starting children's drops at 2-4 weeks carries potential risk of exceeding maximum recommended intake of vitamin A in formula fed infants • However cases of hypocalcamic fits in Birmingham children fed on formula have been recorded, suggesting they are born deficient • Many infants nationally are on vitamins plus formula and no known cases of vitamin A toxicity • In recent years there have been 3 infant deaths from cardiomyopathy secondary to vitamin D deficiency • On balance, Steering Grp supports issuing vitamins at 2-4 weeks Measuring uptake- a challenge – Collect number of bottles ordered per base, numbers reported as issued by each outlet, and spend on vitamins – Year to March 2009, 11% of eligible women in HoB tPCT area receiving HS vitamins for women, and 13% of eligible children receiving HS vitamin drops – Uptake of women's increased to around 15% in 2009-10, and uptake of children's at least maintained – 2010-11: reaching at least 17% of women, and at least 12% of children Improving uptake? • Spend on Healthy Start vitamin supplements has increased: • £1,900 per month on average during 2008-9 • £3,800 per month 2009-10 • £4,768 per month for 2010-11 • i.e increase by factor of 2.55 in last 2 years, and cost has only increased by 450% Reducing cases of deficiency? • Case finding exercise carried out during 2005 at Birmingham hospitals revealed 29 cases of vitamin D deficiency in children under 5 in HoB tPCT area (vit D<10 µg/l) • Repeated for cases during year to March 2010, and found just 12 cases in the area • 21 children in total with Birmingham post codes Incidence- a success? • In HoB tPCT area, incidence of Vitamin D deficiency disease has decreased from 120/100,000 in 2006 to 49/100,000 in 2010 Roll out of campaign • Case finding exercise, and increase in vitamin uptake in high risk groups, used to justify roll out to whole of Birmingham • Change to eligibility for children, just to age 4, as children aged 4-5 hard to reach, and this may reduce cost • Launched February 2011, so too early to measure impact • After March 2012, may not be affordable What does it cost? • Budget of £113,000 per annum, which would not be adequate with 100% take up • Paying for deliveries to Children's Centres, Health Centres and pharmacies • We pay pharmacists to distribute, 90p per issue, payable after 50 given out • So far affordable, but may become a cost pressure • Need to improve claim back from DH Cost of not treating • Treating rickets has been estimated to cost £2,500-5,000 per child, plus hidden "social" costs • Women's supplements during pregnancy and for one year post-natally cost £9.13 • Children's drops for one year cost £10.47, so to supplement until aged 4 costs £41.86 • Not all un-supplemented children would develop rickets, but there is growing evidence on other risks of suboptimal vitamin D levels • AND some of cost can be re-claimed from DH On going issues • We don't know whether women and children continue taking, or mainly just use one bottle • Still no "one stop shop" for families on Healthy Start • Little on-going public user engagement in Birmingham • Awaiting agreement to start drops at 2-4 weeks in other 2 PCT areas Any questions?

Punk Album Art for us all
Some of the best Album covers come from some of the most creative bands that decide they don't want to conform to the norm. When an album cover has a message behind the design and images, you really do appreciate the effort that has gone into the creation and most likely the music will have some inspirational lyrics to make it whole. You don't have to like Punk music to appreciate the messages behind these albums but at least they were trying to get a message across that meant something worth singing for. While on that - How can music without a soul become so popular?? I mean "Baby, baby, baby ohhhhhh….." (Thanks for that Justin Bieber) Maybe we are living in an opposite dimension where all bad music goes to the top of the pops!!? I would think so after switching on any FM radio station in the hope of indulging my ears in a bit of easy listening….. How can this even compare to classic 80's songs like - Flock of Seagulls "I Ran"? Well, it simply cannot!
Anyway we are going off on a bit of a tangent here as it's about the Art on the cover and not the art of the music within the album. Perhaps that's something we can discuss at another time.
So what's your favorite Punk album cover of all time? Here's a few we think are standouts, not only because of the Art but also because of the hours of listening enjoyment they have provided. These are in no particular order, we like them all and would hate to upset anyone who may think differently. If you like a bit of Punk Rock and haven't heard some of these albums, we recommend you check these out as you will not be disappointed.
So to finish off (or maybe to start) the music side of this discussion, perhaps we can ponder on these thoughts - are you bored with the UN-creative? Do you want more when it comes to listening to music? Besides, music does feed the sole. It can change moods, help when you get dumped and can get you through a hard day, week or year. So should we maybe categorize music into something that is more understandable for us hard-core music lovers? Perhaps it's what's needed to revolutionize the music we listen to, what is acceptable to be played on the radio, or even be recorded, maybe a music governor that simply stops the crap from playing. More on this soon………

Very cool sounds from the amazing Eddie Harris – a live set, cut at the popular Newport Jazz Festival – but one that's arguably even freakier and more freewheeling than some of Eddie's studio work for Atlantic! Eddie's horn is really plugged in for the set – a Varitone, which is blown with a rich variety of tones – including some very far out, echoey modes at the start – then fused into a sharper, soulful groove later on! The group's also got some really wonderful electric piano from Jodie Christian – and include Louis Spears on bass and Bob Crowder on drums – and the legendary Eugene McDaniels joins the quartet for some very hip vocals on one cut too. Titles include "Don't You Know The Future's In Space", "Carry On Brother", "Walk Soft", and "Silent Majority". (Cover has a cutout notch.) © 1996-2017, Dusty Groove, Inc.
We realize that there are many different interpretations of the standard grades used for pre-owned vinyl record albums & CD, so we thought we'd offer you the ones that we are working with, so you have an idea what we mean when we give the grade for a non-new item on our pages.
Below are stated conditions for a used vinyl records at Dusty Groove. Grading for the cover should be assumed to be near (within a "+" or "-") the grading for the vinyl. If there is significant divergence from the condition of the vinyl, or specific flaws, these will be noted in the comments section of the item. However, please be aware that since the emphasis of this site is towards the music listener, our main concern is with the vinyl of any used item we sell. Additionally, please note that all of our records are graded visually; considering the volume of used vinyl we handle, it is impossible for us to listen to each record. If we spot any significant flaws, we make every attempt to listen through them and note how they play.
The following grading conditions apply to the vinyl component of an album or single:
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Shadow Lord's Daughter: Part Fourteen
Just like earlier when Wraith first showed me his house, the human side of him is becoming more prominent. The human Wraith has black hair pulled back in a ponytail at the base of his neck. His dark green eyes with gold flecks seem out of place in translucent skin until that too fills in with a soft olive skin tone. He turns around and catches me watching him from over calculus homework that I've been pretending to do.
"Distracted?" he asks with a smile.
"Of course not. I just need help with a few of these," I reply and look back down at my paper.
Wraith walks across the kitchen to me and looks at my blank paper. "I see," he laughs. "Thee needs help with all of them. Is calculus that hard?"
I nod. "Yes. I don't understand any of it."
Wraith smiles. "Well that makes two of us. I did not need to learn this mathematic when I was in school."
"How old are you really, Wraith?"
He stares at the table. "Well, when eidolons have their coming of age, they freeze at that age. I will soon celebrate the eightieth anniversary of my eighteenth birthday."
I blink. "You're ninety-eight?"
He nods. "By human standards, yes. By supernatural standards, I am still eighteen."
"So if I am eidolon," I begin.
"Thou art."
"Then will I be sixteen forever?"
Wraith shrugs. "Thou art not a normal eidolon. Thy father is Shadow Lord, therefore he is immortal, and thou art immortal also. And no matter what thy true age be, thee can choose to appear whatever age thy wishes."
"Dad never told me about that. How old is he really?"
"Thy father appears to be in his late forties for appearances of having a teenage daughter, but thy father is truly one hundred and five."
One hundred and five? One hundred and five? "That old?"
Wraith nods. I look back down at the homework that won't be getting done anytime soon. A question suddenly pops into my head and makes me worried.
"Wraith, how old am I really?"
Wraith coughs. "Well…"
"I'm not really sixteen?"
Wraith looks up, piercing me with his dark green eyes. "I have already told thee too much about thy past and thyself. I should not say more."
"Wraith, please. How old am I really?"
"Sixteen. I was merely making a joke."
I laugh hollowly. "Well don't do that, you had me worried there for a minute."
Wraith smiles. "My apologies, Nikki. I only wished to make thee laugh."
I smile even though part of my mind wonders if he really was making a joke or being serious.

Wayne Rooney may have his World Cup recuperation cut short by being asked to join Manchester United's coast-to-coast tour of the United States.
Should England be eliminated in the group stages of the World Cup, they will return home on June 27. Under those circumstances, Rooney (pictured) and Manchester United's other England players would join the club's highly-lucrative American tour which begins in California on 23 July, giving him a summer break of little more than three weeks.
The same would apply to any other of the club's players who come home from the World Cup before the knockout stages begin. The United manager David Moyes said that the majority of players he was hoping to bring to Old Trafford in the summer would be going to Brazil.
"We have already formulated the time the players will have off, depending on what stage they go out of the World Cup," said Moyes. On last summer's tour of Australia and the Far East, Shinji Kagawa was brought in midway, after Japan's appearance in the Confederations Cup.
Moyes, whose side visit Everton in the Premier League today, hopes all his players can be given a month off . But that may not be possible given the commitments of the club – who will join Manchester City, Liverpool, Milan, Olympiakos, Real Madrid, Inter and Roma in competing for the International Champions Cup between 24 July and 4 August. .
The tour is heavily sponsored and with the game against Real Madrid in Michigan having sold 100,000 tickets, both teams will be under pressure to field their strongest possible sides.
Everton v Manchester United is live on Sky Sports 1, kick-off 4.10

Captive Souls
I sat scared in the fancying of what would happen now, since our incarceration in the camp field. Below the blue of the sky was the town, larger than any other, of Fisher Crown, a community captive in the unjustly safeguarding of the patrol. A mighty navy was alive at shore and out into sea, vigilant. Fisher crown also had its own mass of water. Overhead were the ever present vessels of the sky, high and watchful, with steady eyes. I can recall the tumult of voices in announcements by the police, armed in black, over people and empty squares. Dogs were there, malicious just as their mentors taught them to be. Strong heaving trucks, like tanks, also in uniformly addressed black, guarded the roads and the suberbans with heavy and thickened armor, strong with their loud rumble of machinery. I caught one of these passing me, conveying fresh fugitive crowds into the bay of the camping field, where many of them were delivered into compounds divided.
This camp clustered the town around, decorating the green around Fisher Crown in white tents and bunches of vehicles, in military order. From my standing, a newly placed road whent from here, into the houses and shops of the town. The man that had taken me away, planted me in other strange groups of weeping people, vague in their clothing. ''Be silent or we will release the hounds!'', pronounced a soldier, invisible by the face. ''Damn you, we have rights!'', cheered a few brave souls. A commotion began with frantic and harmonious shouts and cries. In the chaos, I was pushed in the sway of the people, raging, and I called for my mother, then my father, but I could not locate them. In tears I was caught by a grip, and Mr. Garcia was there. ''They're gone, taken to some other place, all of em.'', he said. He hurried me through hagard appearing people. I turned my head in the loudness of dogs and screaming, for they had released their savage hounds. The panic grew into a terrrible fight, and the guns were used. Wild sounds of disorder deafened me, with the gunning and trumendous shouts. The uncontrolable forwarding of raving men, taken from their world of the free creed, started in their barbairic fued through their captivity.
The violance sent me into a dramatic state of forgetting most of the escapefrom the violance. Nothing could have been seemingly close to the wild fight of those prisoners, I had regarded as in those few moments. I was turned, my tears vanished without delay. Before me dropped women and their husbands, men and their beloved, and the young, as the guns of the troops sounded into bombarding clatter. I had finally witnessed a massacre of martyrs, within feet of the dead and their bloodied spaces. A woman killed in the flying of bullets nearly touched my feet in her falling. Quickly, I turned with that helplessness, and viewed the same parallel of the bloody murder, with everyone around me being slained. Blood sprinkled upon my neck and shoulders, seeing that a man was chanced out by the firing of the guns, and had died upon my sight. He had fallen to my feet, as many others had.
Others were quickly caught by the blazing fury of the rifles, when they stood to my chance of protection. I fled weeping and with a filled throat, hid myself in the bushes of a placed tent, battered by the stricking of the bullets. In the worst fear I had experienced, I prayed without a breath and a rest for my lungs, perceiving that Mr. Garcia had fallen in the atrocity of the troops. He was killed in the swift deliverance of that clashing death.
