Autodesk Selects ScanSoft and RE Recognition for Text RecognitionAdds OCR Capabilities to Autodesk Raster Design Software (December 19, 2001)
Under terms of the collective agreement, Autodesk is using ScanSoft and RE Recognition technologies as the text recognition engines in Autodesk Raster Design 3, an editing and image-processing application for Autodesk's GIS, Building Industry, Manufacturing, and general design customers. With ScanSoft and RE Recognition's technology, users of Autodesk Raster Design can edit and verify the accuracy of both handprint and machine print text from scanned drawings and maps and easily integrate it into the broader design process. Autodesk Raster Design is designed for installation with all of Autodesk's AutoCAD 2002-based applications.
"Many organizations have large amounts of paper-based legacy data, including scanned drawings, maps, and images, that is not being put to use as it is either too cost-prohibitive or time consuming to convert into a digitally reusable format," said Kim Davis, director of marketing and product management for the GIS Solutions Division at Autodesk. "Being able to accurately incorporate that data into the broader design process is key to maximizing the value of their data. ScanSoft's OCR technology provides our users with important tools for increasing data accuracy and making the conversion process much faster, which ultimately helps them reduce costs and extract more value from their legacy data."

Miller Center Transformative Frontier
Eradicating poverty, helping the world's poor become resilient to climate change, and empowering women economically are crucial goals for the future of humanity. Social entrepreneurship and impact investing are important avenues to achieve these goals.
Still, there is an estimated $2.5 trillion annual gap in financing the world's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While many hope that private capital can address this deficit, the fact is that 80% of small and growing businesses (SGBs), small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and social enterprises (SEs) lack sufficient capital to thrive, grow, and scale.
At Miller Center for Social Entrepreneurship, we are committed to helping social enterprises prosper and scale so they can deliver their intended social and environmental impact. Securing appropriate funding is vital to social enterprises at all stages of their development, yet we see major funding gaps that threaten the long-term success of the social enterprise movement.
To help address these gaps, we are launching The Transformative Frontier™: A Quarterly Review of Impact Investing, a publication designed to explore and spark conversations about the capital needs of social enterprises and how they are being fulfilled.
Transformative Frontier Spans the Entire Investment Spectrum
The term "Transformative Frontier" refers to the whole spectrum of investments, from pure philanthropy to market-rate financial returns by impact investors. It also encompasses everything from small seed-stage grants, prizes, and investments to significant capital infusions for late-stage social enterprises as they scale.
At the philanthropy end of the spectrum, charitable organizations can make their donations and grant money go further by adopting an investment-oriented approach that returns some or all of the invested capital to its source, or what we call a "round-trip" of capital. This approach represents a great improvement over donated capital's one-way journey from charitable organization to recipient.
At the other end of the spectrum, Miller Center recently released a white paper on Total Portfolio Activation for Impact to help foundations, money managers, and other impact investors achieve market-rate returns on their investments. We also need to consider other financial instruments—with a range of associated returns—that can enable social enterprises to thrive.
Impact investors are defined by their intentions to generate social or environmental impact. There is little evidence that most forms of impact are likely to generate market rate returns, and many may not return even 100% of invested capital. True impact investors starting at the market-rate end of the spectrum will need to adjust their expectations if we collectively are to achieve the SDGs and cross the Transformative Frontier.
And in the "missing middle" of the spectrum, we want to spur innovations in capital that will help social enterprises bridge the gap between smaller capital investments in their early stages and larger capital infusions as they scale. These are typically in a mid-range between $50K prizes and awards and $2M investments.
Our Methodology—And An Invitation to Join Us
The Transformative Frontier presents investment trends across geographic regions, sectors, deal sizes, deal types, deal counts, and social enterprise stages. It is anchored by data and graphs discerned from impact investors engaged with Miller Center. The Transformative Frontier also shares deal flows from our world-class GSBI® (Global Social Benefit Institute) program participants, as well as social enterprises that haven't been engaged with Miller Center.
To survey and examine the Transformative Frontier, we constructed a Miller Center Impact Investor Universe comprising 230 investors derived from a starting pool of more than 400. We currently receive investment histories from 167 of these investors, and we expect this number to increase. In 2015, investors within the Impact Investor Universe invested $1.7 billion, with a median deal size of $1.5 million.
To be included in the Impact Investor Universe, investors must have explicit intention to create impact. Miller Center's focus is on poverty eradication. Investors are screened for three factors:
- First, we examine each investor's description of their investment strategies and goals to make sure they are focused on poverty eradication.
- Second, we review historical investments.
- Third, we analyze larger deals or "outliers" to ensure strict congruence with Miller Center's definition of impact investing, i.e., intention matters.
Each quarter in The Transformative Frontier, we will share recent data we have gathered and analyzed from our Impact Investor Universe, with the intention of shedding light on some aspect of the social enterprise-funding spectrum.
We invite you to join us in an ongoing conversation about this Transformative Frontier, and how we can collectively work to eradicate poverty, address the U.N. SDGs, and boost the economic empowerment of women worldwide through the funding and support of social enterprises addressing these issues. Together, let's collaborate to help provide social enterprises worldwide with the financial instruments and funding structures that will propel their success.

Dawn: Don't Like It.Mature
I haven't swallowed mine but it's so strong I don't need to. Pure happy thoughts and images running around in my mind. There's me and Matt kissing, me hugging my father and me with someone I've never met but I know who she is.
She swinging me around in her arms, smiling with all the family around. I spit it out quickly, not wanting to see any more of my mother. Tears are in my eyes but I refuse to cry!
The potion girl looks up at me sadly. "What was it?" Indio asks softly. I wipe my mouth. "It was a happy potion." I say, my voice a little louder then a whisper. The other seem to be coming out of their happy thoughts, all of them looking at me with questioning faces.
"What?" I say annoyed.They shake their heads and start talking to the new girls. "You okay?" Kira asks softly. "Fine!" I snap at her. It's not because I don't like her or nothing, 'cause I do, it's just that image keeps replaying in my head. I don't like it. I don't like it at all! It's bring toomuch pain, knowing that I'll never be with my mother.
"What's wrong with you? All she was doing was asking if you were okay. You didn't have to bite her head off!" Henry says outraised. I scowl at him but he keeps going. "Just because you probably didn't see anything! What's the thing that people say? Evil knows no happieness?" Henrys face is getting red and my fists are balled.
Tears are in my eyes again. "How dare you! You know nothing about me and what I've been through! Just because you're annoyed that the image of you with your tongue down Kiras throat are gone doesn't mean you should take it out on me!" I yell at him. He goes white and Kira blushes.
Oh so I was right. Talk about a lucky quess. "You say one more thing against me and I swear to god I'll choke you with your madellion!" I spit. "Hey! Will you two stop it! Why do you have to be at eachothers throats all the time?" Kira yells, making everyone turn to her.
"He start.." I start but she glares at me. "I don't care who started it! You two sort it out!" Kira says calmly after a few deep breaths. I growl and push the table with the potions on it over. The carpet gets ruined quickly, a big purple stain is on it smoking. Everyone gasps at looks at me.
Okay, I have anger problems I admit it. "Dawn!" Sookie shrieks, her eyes wide. "What? Do you prefer me to hit someone instead?" I yell. Kira rubs her temples. "Dawn. What did you see when you drank the potion?" Her voice is tired. I open my mouth but nothing comes out, I'm too shocked at her question. How does she know that my anger has to do with the potion?

The knee joint is a hinge joint that allows for motion in one plane. Compare this to the ball-and-socket joint of the hip that can be moved in many directions. The knee joint anatomy is dependent on the bones, ligaments, muscles, and tendons that surround the knee. Understanding the anatomy of the knee can help you understand the causes of knee problems.The knee joint involves the complex interaction of bones, cartilage, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Understanding knee problems requires a basic understanding of what is going on inside the knee. Learn about basic knee anatomy with the use of images and diagrams that explain how this complex joint allows us to move the knee joint. By learning how things should work, you can understand why things go wrong when knees are injured.Knee pain is an extremely common complaint, and there are many causes. It is important to make an accurate diagnosis of the cause of your symptoms so that appropriate treatment can be directed at the cause. Learn about what causes knee pain, how these conditions are diagnosed, and what treatments are available for the most common causes of knee pain.
The word arthritis means inflammation of a joint. The most common type of knee arthritis is osteoarthritis. This is often referred to as "wear-and-tear" arthritis, and it results in the wearing away of the normal smooth cartilage until bare bone is exposed. Other types of arthritis include rheumatoid arthritis, gouty arthritis, and lupus arthritis.
Arthroscopic surgery is a common orthopedic procedure that is used to diagnose and treat problems in joints. The word "arthroscopy" comes from two Greek words: 'arthro,' meaning "joint," and 'scope,' meaning "look." Simply put, arthroscopic surgery is a means to look inside a joint. But arthroscopy is much more than that!Knee replacement surgery is the most common joint replacement procedure. A knee replacement surgery is performed when the joint has deteriorated from arthritis, and the symptoms of knee pain can no longer be controlled with simple treatments. Knee replacements are made from metal and plastic implants.Knee pain is among the most commonly encountered orthopedic problems. While there are many causes of knee pain, most can be helped with some specific stretching and strengthening exercises. Even if surgery is necessary on the knee, rehabilitation exercises will certainly be a part of your recovery process. If surgery is necessary, we know that rehab tends to be a smoother process in stronger knees. Patients with stronger muscles around the knee going into surgery have a faster, more successful recovery.

Several persons including Sunanda Pushkar's husband Shashi Tharoor have been questioned in connection with her death.
Swamy questioned the inordinate delay in the probe alleging that Delhi Police was not even taking elementary steps necessary in criminal investigation when it has been established that poison was found in her body.
Shashi Tharoor was questioned by Delhi Police officials on Saturday for about five hours.
Sunanda Pushkar death: "Have been told that Medical Board's advice in late Sunanda's case has been received," Delhi Police Commissioner BS Bassi said in a tweet.
Sources said the special investigation team (SIT) which is probing Sunanda's death will approach the AIIMS medical board to analyse the viscera report. Following this, sources said, a further probe would be conducted .
Sunanda Pushkar's samples were sent to the US for testing after traces of radioactive isotopes were found in her body during the post-mortem examination.
AIIMS forensic chief, Gupta had alleged that AIIMS had illegally purged his seniority with "malafide intention" to punish him for refusing to act unprofessionally in the Sunanda Pushkar autopsy.
The tests were conducted after metropolitan magistrate Sunil Kumar Sharma, during in-camera proceedings on May 20, allowed the police to conduct them on the three people after their consent.
"Generally, the viscera reports were found positive only for ethyl alcohol, methyl alcohol, phosphides, zinc phosphide and aluminium phosphide," the authors observed.
The three suspects–Tharoor's domestic help Narain Singh, driver Bajrangi and friend Sanjay Dewan — said they were willing to undergo the polygraph test.
Delhi police seeks to initiate polygraph tests for 3 people 'closely associated' with Tharoor and Pushkar.
The bench also issued notices to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and AIIMS seeking their reply on Gupta's plea by July.
On January 20, the Delhi Police had handed over two laptops and four mobile phones to Gujarat DFS to retrieve the data.
Sources in the police said that a formal request may be sent to her through "official channels" to join the investigations.
CAT clears Shashi Tharoor of allegedly putting pressure on AIIMS doctor to submit a "tailor-made autopsy report".

Nouvelle Vague was started by well known French trip-hop/jazz producers Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux. The name is a pun on the term 'new wave' as well as being used to describe 'bossa nova' in Portugese. For this project the duo took songs they loved by bands such as Joy Division and The Cure then re-interpreted them, using young female vocalists who'd never heard the originals. The result is an intoxicating mix of bossa nova, jazz and sixties pop.

A former head of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency, Efraim Halevy, is predicting a "dramatic" improvement in relations with the US if the prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu is defeated in elections today.
Ties between the two allies have been strained, especially since Mr Netanyahu addressed the US Congress on 3 March against the wishes of the Obama administration, about the perceived threat to Israel and the world that would ensue from an agreement between Tehran and a group of major powers over Iran's nuclear programme.
Mr Halevy is among a string of former intelligence chiefs to come out against Mr Netanyahu during the election campaign, foremost among them Meir Dagan, Mossad chief under Ariel Sharon, who was the keynote speaker at an opposition rally.
Israel's next PM: Herzog's rival candidates
Israel's next PM: Herzog's rival candidates
1/4 Benjamin Netanyahu
Seeking a fourth term, the 65-year-old has made security a main issue. His policy of settlement-building on occupied land has put him at loggerheads with many of Israel's traditional allies. But he is still seen as the person most likely to cobble together a coalition on the right.

2/4 Tzipi Livni
Sacked by Mr Netanyahu in December after cabinet infighting, Ms Livni, a centrist who served as Justice Minister and chief peace negotiator, seemed destined for the political wilderness until she struck the partnership deal with Isaac Herzog. A leading advocate of a two-state solution with the Palestinians, the 56-year-old has pledged to seek ways to resume peace talks.
AFP/Getty Images
3/4 Yair Lapid
Mr Lapid, 51, was the rising star of Israeli politics in the 2013 election. His centrist Yesh Atid party came second behind Mr Netanyahu's Likud. As a result, Mr Netanyahu appointed him Finance Minister. Fired amid the government squabbling in December, Mr Lapid is a potential kingmaker, predicted to win 12 seats.
AFP/Getty Images
4/4 Ayman Odeh
The Arab Israeli lawyer heads the Joint Arab List and is gaining momentum. It is the first time Israel's four Arab parties have united and they are predicted to win around 13 seats. Mr Odeh, 40, from Haifa, advocates an Arab-Jewish "alliance of the disadvantaged". He has said his party would not join any government.
AFP/Getty Images
"I think the atmosphere will change dramatically and Israel and the US will be able to return to the state they were in in the past," Mr Halevy told The Independent. "In the past, the way we conducted our affairs was not confrontational but rather by seeking to find common ground on common issues on which we should co-operate and dealing with the differences behind closed doors and not up front.
"Differences over Iran might persist," he added. "It's not a foregone conclusion that a new government in Israel will take a totally different position on the Iranian negotiations. It could be that even the new government will find there are a lot of holes in the agreement that are undesirable. But if this is the case, the method it will be dealt with is quiet negotiation and quiet dialogue with the United States and not confrontational steps to alienate one part of the hierarchy in the US as opposed to the other."
Mr Halevy does not envision a breakthrough in Israeli-Palestinian relations if Mr Netanyahu's rival, Isaac Herzog, is victorious. "But I think there will be a more orderly and less confrontational relationship. It will depend to a large measure on whether they want to go back to the drawing board and find ways of co-existence. I think the emphasis will be on creating a new kind of atmosphere for a dialogue," he said.Reuse content

The Red Circle: My Life in the Navy SEAL Sniper Corps and How I Trained America's Deadliest Marksmen
Brandon Webb's experiences in the world's most elite sniper corps are the stuff of legend. From his grueling years of training in Naval Special Operations to his combat tours in the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan, The Red Circle provides a rare and riveting look at the inner workings of the U.S. military through the eyes of a covert operations specialist.
Yet it is Webb's distinguished second career as a lead instructor for the shadowy "sniper cell" and Course Manager of the Navy SEAL Sniper Program that trained some of America's finest and deadliest warriors-including Marcus Luttrell and Chris Kyle-that makes his story so compelling. Luttrell credits Webb's training with his own survival during the ill-fated 2005 Operation Redwing in Afghanistan. Kyle went on to become the U.S. military's top marksman, with more than 150 confirmed kills.
From a candid chronicle of his student days, going through the sniper course himself, to his hair-raising close calls with Taliban and al Qaeda forces in the northern Afghanistan wilderness, to his vivid account of designing new sniper standards and training some of the most accomplished snipers of the twenty-first century, Webb provides a rare look at the making of the Special Operations warriors who are at the forefront of today's military.
Explosive, revealing, and intelligent, The Red Circle provides a uniquely personal glimpse into one of the most challenging and secretive military training courses in the world.

The Canopy
Landon awoke with the cry of a nightmare and sat bolt upright, staring at the bamboo wall in front of him.
"I remember," he whispered to the world. "I remember what happened."
Then confusion set in, and he checked his surroundings. They'd changed again. He threw off the light blanket and got to his feet. "I remember," he repeated softly, walking to the doorway. He was determined to tell someone that he'd remembered.
He was in a hut made of bamboo and slats of smooth pale wood. There wasn't even a door; just an opening. If he was still a prisoner, then he was a privileged one at least. It seemed he was free to leave the hut. But as he reached the opening, his eyes went wide and his head was suddenly light and swaying. He bent his knees and grabbed the bamboo stalks in a shaking fear. He was on a rather narrow balcony.
He crouched down on the floor of the hut until his head stopped spinning. Then, breathing mechanically, he took another peek outside. Yes. He was a hundred feet above the forest floor. Yes. He was in a tree.
After a while, he finally gathered the courage to invesigate the extent of the rather narrow balcony. It passed around the corner of the hut, and when he finally rounded this corner, after many dreadfully slow and careful movements, he discovered a bridge. Across the bridge was a man, which took Landon several seconds to notice; he was dressed in camouflage.
The man gave him a hand signal and began to stride across the bridge as if it was little more than a sidewalk. When he arrived, he directed Landon back into the hut with a rude thumb motion.
"Tell me what's going on," demanded Landon.
"Silencio," the man said.
Landon swallowed. "I remember," he said sternly.
The man paused and then cocked his head to the side. "Remember?" he asked.
"I remember what happened," Landon said with growing passion. "The secret organization stole my money and were about to silence me when the S.W.A.T. team showed up. But the S.W.A.T. team took me in captivity...probably to question me. And then...at some point, while I was drugged, I must have exchanged hands."
The Spanish soldier seemed to be following him far too closely.
Landon stopped, blinked for a moment as a new memory flashed into his mind, and then his face split into a grin. "And at some point I got a wife," he said with enthusiasm. He clapped the soldier on the shoulder with a laugh. "When can I see my wife again?" he asked loudly.
The soldier gave Landon a critical stare. A few seconds passed. Then the soldier threw his head back and gave a tremendous, whole-hearted laugh.

Little Town- Big Moutains
The small town of Songora had a population of 4, a runaway slave from the palace,a small common-blooded woman, and two mer-people.
In a tiny cottage lived Acu and Livra. Acu knew nothing of her past and had only faint memories of a place outside the moutains. They lived in Songora because of the Streamway. The Streamway is a fast flowing rive that moves from Zei to Maraqua. The mermaids us this as their route to Zei.
Livra was a merman that traveled to Zei and wed Acu. The 7 eggs were laid and the happy couple waited.
The people of Zei are strange, as are the people of all the other cities. Zeians have dark skin, and a greek apearence. When angered, or, with some amount of control, when they please they can become a dragon or a farie. Most are specialized : Fire dragon, Water Dragon, Lunar farie, or flower farie,but the rainbow dragon is all of them and all of the faries. The rareist and most wonderful of them all.
Maraquins, look diffrent they turn into merpeople and only when touching water. They look strange when human, their skin is almost scale-like and they have sharp pointy teeth. Their hair grows long and silky.
Sogononians, of Sogononia, are extreemly good looking. All of their features in human form are perfect. They turn into Griffins or dragon-eaters, often called drogonoas.
There are many other races in the three cities, but those are the main ones.
Back to the story the family waited for the day they would hatch and were hopeing that it wouldn't end up the way it did.

wedding cake
Peekaboo pumpkin pound cake: made this last holiday - could not find a pumpkin cut out so found a leaf shaped one. It was far from as "pretty" as this one but wow it was sooooo goood! 4 out of 5 stars...only because the pic is misleading as to how it actually looked for me...maybe if I used a pumpkin cut out the roundness would look better than jagged leaves.

If you're listening to music on your phone and want to pause it, you have to either press pause on the screen or on the cord-mounted controls, right? Well now there's another way.
SenCbuds are the world's first headphones that pause the music when you take them out of your ears. So no more reaching for your phone or the controls when someone wants to talk to you. Just take them out and the music pauses. Then when you pop them back in, it picks up where it left off.
Clever, eh?
They use something called Smart Sense Technology. Basically, a sensor inside the earbud is used to trigger audio cues. Put them in your ears, and it starts playback. Take them out, and the sensor stops the music.
Of course you can use manual controls if you like. The remote component doubles as a cable holder too, so you can wrap up the cord and stop getting it tangled.
The SenCbuds Plus model also features a do not disturb function – this is basically a red LED that's supposed to let everyone you know you're listening intently in the hope they won't bother you. Though we can't see that working.
It's raised $10,000 of a $30,000 goal and still has 57 days to go. If you want a pair, pledge $45 (£31) on an early bird. They should ship in May.

The Church of the Derived MindMature
I remembered Dr. Siff from a couple of years ago. He'd been researching graffiti found on walls in temples that predated the last great ice age and had asked me how he would go about finding a modern day graffiti artist. My recommendation of a place to look was on the tow-path underneath the Fifth Bridge, and Dr. Siff was unlucky enough to go on the night that the police raided it. I stood him bail with money I'd stolen from a pension fund and he's been willing to help me out ever since. Usually from a safe distance.
He reached into his pocket in a smooth, practised motion and pulled something out. Acting on reflex I turned, deflected his arm over his head and punched him in the ribs. The air gasped out of his lungs and I stepped forward, pulling his arm to bring him off-balance. As he started to fall, I kneed him sharply in the groin and cuffed the side of his head. I let go of him and he started to curl up into a foetal position, still falling. I reached behind him and seized his ankles and then straightened sharply, pulling upwards so that his ankles were at my eye-level and his face was in the right position for kicking. Then my back went into spasm and I just stood there shaking like an underdressed epileptic in a strobe-lit snowstorm. Five more seconds passed and then I collapsed on top of Dr. Siff, my fingers spastically contracting around his ankles as though they were trying to crush them. Dr. Siff screamed, a muffled sound from somewhere beneath me.
Marv and a couple of the other museum guards rushed up now; the whole incident had taken barely ten seconds from start to finish. They donned protective gloves and pulled me off Dr. Siff, leaving me on the floor to twitch like an innocent man in the electric chair. Dr. Siff was picked up, dusted down, and generally checked over until he protested that he was quite alright. Only then did the guards turn their attention to me.
"What shall we do with him?" asked Marv. A voice I didn't recognise but that I promised myself I would remember piped up from the back, "How do you know it's a him?"
"I've seen his birth certificate," said Marv. "It's the only one I've ever seen where both parents' names have This person wishes to remain anonymous written in instead.
"It's quite alright," said Dr. Siff. "It was just a misunderstanding, I'm sure. I was just getting my passcard out of my pocket."
I groaned, a little more theatrically than was really necessary and made myself sit up. I listened to the clicks and snaps of my body trying to remember what normal feels like, and then sighed. "I thought you were going for a gun," I said. "It's a reflex."
Marv looked disappointed that he wasn't getting to beat the crap out of me, but I was allowed to get up and follow Dr. Siff, who waved his passcard at the Employees only door and made it open. I noted as we went through that the door was at least six inches thick, and had hinges that looked like they'd support the weight of lead. Curious.
We walked together down a bland, fluorescent-lit corridor passing equally spaced doors on both sides until we reached the fifth door on the right, where Dr. Siff waved his magic card again and made it open. He lead the way in, flicking a light-switch on as he entered.
The office had a large wooden desk in the middle with a wooden swivel chair behind it and a paper-stacked armchair in front of it. More papers were piled on the desk, leaving only enough space in the middle for a shiny black PDA. The walls were lined with bookcases where there weren't windows, and the bookcases were laden with books and papers to the point that the shelves were bowing in the middle. The two windows were in the same wall, behind the desk, and looked out onto a park I'd never seen before. I've lived my whole life in this burg; there's nowhere that I don't know.
"What monster are you trying to baptise, Mac?" said Dr. Siff, sitting down in the swivel chair and looking intently at me. His hazel eyes gleamed brightly.
"What?" I said, not understanding. I sat down on the papers on the armchair and a couple of armfuls spilled out from underneath me, gliding across the floor. I noticed that one of the pages had just a bright red number five written on it, but then Dr. Siff started speaking again.
"What monster are you trying to baptise, Mac? Generally that doesn't destroy them, it just makes them a little more Christian than they were before. Sometimes it even means that Christian cults can summon them, and that's just bad news for everyone."
"I'm not trying to baptise a monster at all," I said, still confused. "I'm looking for a church that has already baptised a monster, the one who runs a third of the underworld in this burg and has done for the last fifty years. The man I'm looking for is associated with this church."
Dr. Siff leaned forwards and steepled his hands in the small space on his desk and frowned at me.
"It would have to be either the Church of Starry Wisdom or the Church of the Derived Mind then. They've both been active for over a hundred years. I've got some fascinating notes on them--"
I cut him off. "The Church of Starry Wisdom burned down." I was there, watching, when Mad Frankie and his Anger Management backed the oil tanker up to the church and filled the basement to drowning level. I was running away as fast as I could while they were setting fire to the priest and pushing him into the building.
"They might still have done the baptism," said Dr. Siff. "But you should probably start with the Church of the Derived Mind. Their church is on Phedra road, and they have a corporate headquarters in the Angelicus building."
I shivered, Mad Frankie has his headquarters in the Angelicus building too.
I stood up to leave, and Dr. Siff leaned back in his chair. "I've a message for you too, Mac," he said. "Call Pussy. She can help you if you let her."
I hawked and spat, then walked out of his office listening to the sputum sizzle on the wood of his desk.

Excellent 4.0 /5 from 31 reviews
I loved it! Friendly people, clean and quiet, modern place, safe, great beds in a perfect location! I will be back!
One of the best places to meet people. Loved the free dinners as free food !!!!! But especially great for meeting new people. Met someone new every night
Really good place to stay, staff was really helpful, friendly and polite, accommodation was clean, spacious and safe, it's 500yrds from main bus area, I would really recommend staying here but mainly for young party goers, it's a stone throw from main shopping area, they offer a lot of activities to get you all involved, I only went site seeing but would easily pick this hostel every time, quality for the price, well worth the money.
360 Hostel Arts & Culture Barcelona was great for a solo traveler. Lots of activities to engage with other travelers as well as some free meals and travel advice. Only downside is trying to get into the building after hours. You have to buzz in and it can take a few tries, but the staff is most friendly and helpful, the beds are comfortable, and it is a jovial environment.
The hostel had a good, positive vibe. Perfect for young people who want to meet fellow travellers.

Ten Dollar Outfit
While Ten Dollar Outfit shies away from the "jam band" label, they are sorta like Phoenix's own version of Widespread Panic-meets-John Mayer, and singer/guitarist Brian Chartrand even admits, "I don't like playing or singing a song the same way . . . ever, really." And TDO really is more of a live band than a studio band, if its latest full-length, the self-released Live at Chandler Center, is any proof. In addition to some new cuts, the album contains versions of songs off TDO's last studio album, East Meets West, that sound little like the originals, thanks to TDO's love of improvisation. The band's knack for blending laid-back folk-rock with jazzy jams and wrapping it up in emotive showmanship stems from influences as varied as Steely Dan, Jeff Buckley, Ben Harper, and Coldplay, but Ten Dollar Outfit somehow has a sound all its own. TDO's got some songs, too, from the compelling, mellow ballad "Lover's Plight" to the jazz-funk jaunt "15 Tons of Moonshine," and its live show always holds the promise of a . . . dare we say, jam?

This is the first time ordering canvas artwork on-line. I opened my package in great anticipation and wasgreatly delighted.Although the art is painted on a dark background,I find that the coloured flowers stand out even inlow lighting.I believe ordering the right size picture for the space the canvas is to occupy is crucial.I'm truly pleased with this piece and look forwardto ordering more in the future.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

If you are having problems with Google-Chrome browser on Linux then you might want to try the Chromium browser offshoot, which is built using the same codebase. It is free of the spyware associated rightly or wrongly with the former so you might feel more comfortable using it.
This covers installation on Centos 6/RHEL but it should work on pretty much any Linux distro with slight alterations.
I've found this version to be very stable and free from bugs.
We also install Flash and Java plugins which work perfectly.
It's best to have Java and Firefox/Flash installed first, and in that order if possible, so go to these links for relevant info on Java and Firefox/Flash
$ sudo yum -y install lsb xdg-utils libXcomposite unzip
Now four commands will install Chromium and the plugins.
$ unzip chrome-linux.zip
$ sudo ln -s /home/<user_name>/.chrome-linux/chrome-wrapper /usr/bin/chrome-wrapper
$ ln -s /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/* . /home/<user_name>/.chrome-linux/
(Ignore 'file exists' make sure to include the dot after *)
The above commands will unzip & hide the chrome-linux folder, create a symlink in /usr/bin and symlink ALL plugins from your Mozilla plugins directory to the Chromium directory.
You could alternatively create a 'bin' folder in your home directory to symlink it to, as in
$ mkdir bin (or /home/<user_name>/bin)
$ sudo ln -s /home/<user_name>/.chrome-linux/chrome-wrapper /home/<user_name>/bin/chrome-wrapper
That's it, run it with
$ chrome-wrapper
Users of Fluxbox can put a line in the /home/<user_name>/.fluxbox/keys file
F10 : ExecCommand chrome-wrapper
See Fluxbox key bindings for more.
You can also cd to Desktop folder (or anywhere else) and create a symlink shortcut
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/chrome-wrapper
Currently I only have it tested in 32bit Centos.
Older and other OS versions available at the link below, I did find some bugs with some of these so if you want to play safe stick with the 32bit version at the top of the page.

Once we had reached the beach I separated from the group. I sat on my own staring out at the boat as it slowly sank into the depths of the sea. It was a pity that the wood of the boat had gone to a waste, the Gods would not be happy with this. I was broken from my reverie when the new girl sat down beside me. I looked round at her, both confused and annoyed.
"Hi" She said quietly. "Um, nice work, back there"
"What are you doing?" I asked, wondering why she would come talk to me.
"Oh... I, um... We haven't been officially introduced yet, so... I'm Brena, nice to meet you" She stuck out a hand. I gazed at her hand for a moment and cautiously shook it.
"Zahkon" I said slowly.
"Nice to meet you" She grinned, as she leapt back to her feet leaving me wondering what had just happened.
"Soup in a little while!" She said over her shoulder as she walked back to the others.
We left the beach the next morning and started off towards our new destination. We travelled for about a week. All through the week Valenstar was very withdrawn and not his usual annoying self. It was quite quiet without him shouting or singing. It was almost peaceful. It seemed I wasn't the only one to notice this adjustment in behaviour. The others looked at him strangely too, wondering what was going on in his head. They even dared question him about it, but they received stupid answers to their questions and soon gave up on him.
When he did annoy us though it was difficult to hold myself back from shooting arrows at him. The second day into the trek I lost my cool and blasted him with magic, sending him hurtling a large distance away from us. It was a momentary reprieve but it was the best any of us could do.
Every evening when we stopped for the night, Valenstar would make me fight with him. I was slowly getting better but was still pretty much useless with the unwieldy blade. As the week passed Lyra joined the fights. This made me extremely uncomfortable. Not only was she willingly putting herself in danger, but she and Valenstar were getting a bit too close for comfort. It was as if she had started training just to see how I would react. Soon though, the rest of the group joined the training, all except Destran. The increased numbers gave Valenstar less time with Lyra which was good, but it showed me how bad with a blade I was compared to the others.
With the group distracted with the training, it gave me time to steal Lyra away so we could be alone and not have to suffer the glares of a disapproving Yara. Lyra however, did not seem to notice nor care about this. She was perfectly happy to stay with the group all of the time which frustrated me, no end. On several occasions Brena had come to talk to me while I was on my own. The conversations were short and slightly unfriendly on my part. I was confused as to why she was talking to me, and was worried as to her motives. If she intended to steal me from Lyra she would fail miserably.
By the end of the week we reached a small town with a strange name, and even stranger inhabitants. They were very small, and Destran warned me to watch them closely as they would steal anything they could find. The group split and we went our separate ways. I followed Lyra while she gathered what supplies she would need for the onward journey. When she was finished we walked around the town for a while but I soon became bored of the ground and wished to be free up in the trees. I asked Lyra to accompany me but she refused with a smile and a light kiss on my cheek.
"Have fun, and don't hurt yourself" She said while hugging me before walking off toward where we had seen Brena go a few moments earlier.
I leapt up into the nearest tree and ran.

Get the Stoke City newsletter
16:05 12th December 2009
THOMAS SORENSEN'S last minute penalty save was enough to ensure Stoke City picked up a point from an enthralling encounter in front of the live television cameras at the Britannia Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Referee Mike Dean awarded the visitors a controversial spot kick after Robert Huth brought down Jordi Gomez, despite the Spaniard appearing to be at least a yard offside. However, the Denmark international brilliantly denied Hugo Rodallega in added time to make it three successive spot kick saves.
The game had earlier burst into life after just 15 minutes when Emerson Boyce headed the visitors into the lead. However, City responded well and drew themselves level shortly before half time through Tuncay, who opened his account for the Club in his first home League start.
Wigan were back in front midway through the second half though as Maynor Figueroa caught Sorensen off guard and scored what will arguably be the goal of the season from inside his own half.
City wasted no time in getting back into the contest though, and did so just 57 seconds later thanks to Ryan Shawcross, who headed home Matthew Etherington's corner.
The Potters had chances to secure all three points late on through both Fuller and Tuncay, but in the end they will be happy with a point thanks once again to Sorensen's heroics.
Ahead of the game, Tony Pulis sprang a surprise by partnering Ricardo Fuller along with Tuncay, whilst Danny Collins was dropped to the bench for the first time with Shawcross coming back into the heart of defence and Andy Wilkinson resorted to a more unfamiliar left back spot.
The game got underway on a bitterly cold early afternoon and City started the brighter of the two sides. In fact, they almost found themselves ahead after just three minutes, as Dean Whitehead drilled an effort agonisingly wide of the post after neatly controlling Matthew Etherington's in-field ball 18-yards out.
A trademark Rory Delap throw-in then caused a brief moment of panic amongst the Latics backline as his long ball found its way through to Tuncay, however, with his back towards goal he was unable to divert the ball goalwards, and instead Titus Bramble cleared the ball away from danger.
Wigan surged up the other end of the pitch moments later and were awarded a free-kick 25-yards out when referee Mike Dean adjudged Salif Diao to have tripped Wales international Jason Koumas. From the resulting kick, Hugo Rodallega stepped up to drive in a testing effort, only for Thomas Sorensen to comfortably gather.
There was nothing the Denmark international could do just after the quarter hour mark though when Boyce reacted quickest to his point blank save and nodded the ball into an empty net to put Roberto Martinez's side into an early lead.
The goal seemed to wake up the Potters as they immediately set off in search of an equaliser; one which nearly came from Jamaican international Fuller. The City striker rose highest to meet Delap's teasing ball, however, his header drifted just over with Chris Kirkland stranded.
Senegalese star Diao was next to try his luck but after firing an effort goalwards Mario Melchiot bravely threw himself in front of the ball to divert it out for a corner. Despite Tuncay firing across a dangerous ball, no-one was able to get on the end of it and Kirkland was allowed to come out and punch it away from trouble.
City continued to press forward though and a deserved equaliser finally came in the 38th minute thanks to man of the match Tuncay. The Turkey skipper latched on to a long punt forward, cut inside and smashed the ball into the back of the net from a tight angle, much to the delight of the majority of the Britannia Stadium.
He went desperately close to a second 60 seconds later when his acrobatic bicycle kick was outstandingly blocked by Boyce, with the ball looking to be heading into the top left hand corner. The Turk had certainly lifted the spirits of the supporters and his tenaciousness earned the Potters a corner right on the stroke of half time. Unfortunately, the visitors were able to clear their lines and the half ended all square.
Martinez was forced into a change during the interval as Boyce was forced off with a head injury which he picked up whilst bravely putting the Latics ahead in the first half. His replacement was on-loan Chelsea youngster Scott Sinclair.
The Potters suffered an early scare at the start of the half as an unmarked Paul Scharner somehow failed to make contact with Charles N'Zogbia's dangerous ball into the penalty area, with the goal at his mercy. He was almost made to pay for the miss by Tuncay, who curled a delicate free-kick inches over the crossbar from the tightest of angles.
City's assault on the Wigan backline continued and they should have been ahead on the hour mark when Fuller burst through on goal after neatly controlling Dean Whitehead's through-ball. But with Tuncay waiting at the far post, Fuller opted to shoot and dragged his effort wide, just inches away from Tuncay's outstretched boot, as he looked to divert his effort into the back of the net.
Pulis then introduced Glenn Whelan at the expense of the more defence-minded Diao as he looked to continue to lay siege on the opposition. The Republic of Ireland star looked rejuvenated and after playing a neat one-two with Etherington, he flicked an effort just wide from 15-yards.
Tuncay was next to try his luck, but after brilliantly controlling the ball his effort was somehow deflected marginally over the bar by Scharner. With City looking so dominant, it seemed inevitable that a goal would come... and it did, however, not for City.
Having been felled by a late challenge from Delap, Figueroa stepped up to take the free-kick inside his own area and spotted Sorensen off his line. With unfounded precision and power, he fired the ball almost 70 yards, and he along with 27,000 supporters watched it unbelievably find its way into the top left hand corner to put the visitors ahead totally against the run of play.
But in true Potters fashion they refused to let the sucker punch run them over, and they were back on level terms before Wigan had even finished celebrating taking the lead. Straight from the kick-off, City won a corner, which Etherington fired in and Shawcross powered the ball home to send City's supporters into delirium.
Pulis thrust James Beattie on in one last ditch attempt to pick up all three points in the 81st minute, and he looked lively as he helped tee up Tuncay, but just as he readied himself to fire the ball goalwards he was charged down by Melchiot, before the former Chelsea man hacked the ball away for a throw-in.
Just as the fourth official announced there would be an additional five minutes of time added on, the visitors were given the chance to steal all three points, as the referee blew up for a controversial spot kick.
But Sorensen came to City's aid and ensured justice prevailed by maintaining his exceptional record at saving penalties.

Classroom For Young Adult Special Education Students With Mental Illness
This classroom is located at the BEACON Specialized Living facility in Bangor for agency-placed adults with severe disabilities. The classroom serves young adult special education students (primarily Bangor residents) between the ages of18-26 who cannot be educated within their local schools or existing VBISD special education programs due to their severe mental health needs and unmanageable behaviors. These students cannot tolerate a typical classroom due to the number of students nor a full day of instruction due to their difficulties staying focused and lack of motivation to participate. The BEACON curriculum does not focus on the Michigan Merit Curriculum courses required for graduation but focuses on meeting the needs of the student population which includes areas such as: independent living skills; functional academics; pre-vocational skills; community integration skills; recreational skills; health, fitness, and self care, social skills, and self awareness/self management.
Student Population:
Adolescent-Young Adults between the ages of 18-26 who reside in Bangor (with some exceptions) with CI or EI whose needs cannot be met within existing schools or special education programs due to mental illness or behavior problems.
